As a leading provider of adolescent treatment in Ohio, Life Solutions South strives to provide premiere prevention and treatment services for children and adolescents across Ohio. Childhood and adolescence can be a challenging time, especially when there are problems with behavior, attention, mood, or when there are difficulties at home or at school. Experimentation with substances and drug/alcohol use by the youth or family member can further complicate a child's development. If problems go untreated, children/adolescents can develop low self-esteem, perform poorly at school, have troubling relationships with friends and family and not live up to their potential. We believe with quality therapeutic interventions, children/adolescents are able to develop the coping tools and life skills needed to acquire the highest level of functioning possible.
 

Our uniquely comprehensive approach to treatment begins with gathering information through the assessment process to custom-tailor treatment for our clients.
