Adolescent Trauma Services

Helping Teens Heal and Rebuild After Trauma

At Capital Youth Services, we specialize in treating adolescents who have experienced trauma with expert care, deep compassion, and evidence-based methods. Traumatic events, such as sexual or physical assault, witnessing or surviving violence, sudden loss, or other life-threatening experiences, can profoundly affect a young person’s sense of safety, trust, and identity.

We understand these experiences can leave lasting emotional scars. Our mission is to help teens process what happened, reduce distress, and reclaim a life worth living.

Immediate Intervention and Lasting Recovery

Our trauma team provides immediate, specialized intervention after a traumatic event to help minimize long-term post-traumatic stress.
Early support from experienced clinicians can significantly reduce the severity of PTSD symptoms and prevent chronic suffering.

We work to restore safety, strengthen emotional regulation, and rebuild trust through connection, understanding, and skillful treatment.

Gold-Standard, Evidence-Based Care

We proudly offer Prolonged Exposure (PE) therapy, the gold standard for trauma treatment, alongside other trauma-informed approaches including:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
• Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
• Skills for managing distress and re-establishing trust

These approaches are proven to help adolescents recover from PTSD, traumatic invalidation, and acute stress disorder, while building resilience and emotional strength.

We take pride in offering trauma treatment that is:

• Developmentally tailored for youth and families
