Mountain Valley Treatment Center is a residential treatment center for adolescents and young adults ages 13-20 suffering from extreme Anxiety Disorders, OCD and OC Spectrum Disorders. We are located in the beautiful Upper Valley region of New Hampshire in a town called Plainfield, situated 20 minutes from Hanover, NH and Dartmouth College. We use evidence-based methods as well as a holistic approach to offer compassionate yet effective care for our residents. Adolescents and young adults who come to Mountain Valley are often bright, talented and "stuck"​. At MVTC, they learn and practice skills and coping tools to support their next steps. Our residents know that through CBT, ACT-oriented Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, they will learn to "sit with it"​ when they are faced with their anxiety. When they aren't in group or individual therapy, residents enjoy activity therapy sessions which include Yoga, Meditation, Expressive Arts Therapy, Adventure and a Mountain Valley favorite: Farm-to-Table module. We approach Academics as an opportunity for residents to practice and be exposed to a classroom setting in the name of skill-building, however we also offer 1:1 instruction for classes for credit. We were recently featured in the New York Times Magazine Article: "The Kids Who Can't: Why Are More American Teenagers Than Ever Suffering From Severe Anxiety?"​ https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/11/magazine/why-are-more-american-teenagers-than-ever-suffering-from-severe-anxiety.html
