About this facility
Odyssey House of Utah is a non-profit substance abuse program offering specialized care for a wide demographic of individuals and families, treating addiction and co-occurring mental health since 1971. Their teen residential program has been helping youth maintain sobriety and reach their full potential with personalized treatment since 1978.
Odyssey House of Utah provides comprehensive treatment tailored for adolescents and teens ages 13-18 with addiction and co-occurring mental health or behavioral disorders. Teens and families go through a thorough initial assessment to develop individually tailored treatment plans that fit each individual's unique set of circumstances. Treatment teams consist of certified addiction specialists and counselors, in addition to mental health professionals and psychiatric providers, available to treat clients struggling with substance misuse with co-occurring mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, mood disorders, antisocial personality disorder, and trauma and related conditions. On average, clients are in treatment at the Odyssey House for 6-9 months, and upon successful completion, receive ongoing support to maintain long-term sobriety and live stable and independent lives.
Their teen residential facilities emphasize accountability and building a strong recovery foundation based on evidence-based and best practice treatment models. Known for their success in working with teens who have challenging behaviors and attitudes, their individualized approach combines a variety of treatment services, with evidence-based 1-on-1, group, and family therapy, in addition to recreation activities and creative expression through yoga, dance, art, and more.
Odyssey Academy is a core component of their youth residential services, an on-site accredited high school managed by the Salt Lake City School District. Specialized teachers work with students, providing individually tailored assignments designed to help students catch up with credits. With intimate class settings, the student-to-teacher ratio is no more than 12:1, allowing teachers to connect teens to topics they find interesting and expose them to potential degrees, careers, and hobbies, motivating students to continue their education.
The teen residential programs reinforce healthy routines that include cooking, laundry, maintaining a clean space, keeping a structured schedule, engaging in healthy relationships, and other important life skills. Sober events and other recreation are integrated into treatment to foster connection and relationship building with peers, allowing clients to experience that it’s possible to have fun in recovery. Clients are provided with the opportunity to step into leadership roles within their peer community and develop motivation and self worth. Vocational services offers training to teens, teaching them marketable skills and other basic employment preparedness activities. Clients are offered a continuum of care through their outpatient programs, with access to robust aftercare services and a supportive alumni community.
Odyssey House of Utah strives to empower individuals to heal and build better lives as the largest comprehensive addiction program in the state. Their dedication to connect every individual to treatment fostered their ability to provide low-cost, quality services. They are a Joint Commission accredited facility that accepts Medicaid and most major insurance providers.
