The Ridge RTC Expands Access to Care with the Launch of The Cottages Program
The Cottages operates as a standalone program on the Farmhouse campus, allowing The Ridge RTC to maintain small, carefully structured group sizes that support individualized treatment. This thoughtful expansion ensures that each young person continues to receive the focused care and therapeutic support that are core to The Ridge RTC's approach.
"Families trust The Ridge RTC for our commitment to providing quality care in a nurturing, structured environment. The addition of The Cottages reflects our dedication to meeting the growing need for adolescent mental health treatment while maintaining the close-knit community feel that defines our programs," said Dustin Wagner, Chief Clinical Officer of The Ridge RTC.
The Ridge RTC serves both boys and girls, helping adolescents build resilience, develop emotional regulation skills, and grow academically and socially through a comprehensive residential treatment model. In addition to individualized therapy and a supportive academic curriculum, the Farmhouse campus features a robust Equine Assisted Psychotherapy program. This unique therapeutic offering allows students to engage in meaningful, hands-on work with horses, promoting emotional growth, self-awareness, and confidence.
