With teen alcohol abuse increasing across Arizona and the U.S., Artemis Adolescent Healing Center reinforces access to adolescent-focused care.
TUCSON, AZ, UNITED STATES, February 18, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Artemis Adolescent Healing Center today reaffirmed its commitment to supporting teens and families impacted by alcohol use, as communities in Arizona and across the U.S. continue to face persistent concerns around underage drinking and its ripple effects at home, in school, and in youth mental health.
Based in Tucson, Artemis Adolescent Healing Center provides adolescent-focused behavioral health and evidence-based substance use programs designed to meet teens where they are: clinically, developmentally, and emotionally, while keeping families engaged in the recovery process.
The center works with alcohol-related risk behaviors among teenagers and adolescents, co-occurring mental health symptoms, and challenges that often accompany substance use, including academic disruption, conflict at home, and social withdrawal.
“Alcohol is frequently minimized because it’s legal for adults and widely available, but for teens it can carry real, immediate consequences,” said a spokesperson for Artemis Adolescent Healing Center.
“Families often tell us they’re not sure where to start, whether the behavior they’re seeing is a phase or a sign of something more. Our role is to provide a clear clinical assessment, compassionate guidance, and a structured plan that supports the teen and the family system.”
Artemis emphasizes early identification and individualized care planning for adolescents, with treatment approaches tailored to each teen’s needs, strengths, and level of risk. The center’s adolescent programming is built to address both substance use and underlying drivers that may contribute to it, such as anxiety, depression, trauma exposure, or chronic stress.
When appropriate, the team coordinates with families and outside professionals to support continuity of care and practical next steps after treatment.
The announcement comes as parents, educators, and healthcare providers increasingly seek teen-specific resources that recognize how substance use can present differently in adolescence than in adulthood.
Artemis encourages families to seek professional guidance when alcohol use is paired with escalating behaviors, mood changes, declining school performance, withdrawal from activities, or safety concerns.
“Teens don’t need shame, they need support, structure, and adults who take their pain seriously,” the spokesperson added. “Recovery is possible, and it’s often more effective when families don’t wait until a situation becomes a crisis.”
Artemis Adolescent Healing Center is available to speak with families seeking information about adolescent assessment and alcohol treatment options, as well as referral partners looking for teen-focused behavioral health resources in Southern Arizona.
