Girls Residential Treatment in Riverside County
Muir Wood offers residential treatment designed specifically for adolescents with complex mental health needs—combining clinical rigor, family involvement, and academic continuity to build a foundation for sustained recovery. We specialize in primary mental health and dual diagnosis care, supporting teens with or without co-occurring substance use. Each teen receives a thorough clinical assessment upon arrival, allowing her care team to design a treatment plan around her actual needs rather than applying a standardized protocol.
The Edgewild program serves adolescent girls who need more intensive support than outpatient or school-based services can provide, delivering 24/7 clinical care in a setting designed for safety and healing. The campus is located in Arlington Heights, a historic, nature-rich neighborhood in Riverside known for its citrus groves, open space, and quiet residential character. Mature trees, wide streets, and abundant natural light create a sense of calm that families often describe as grounding and restorative. This environment offers privacy and space to focus while remaining accessible enough for meaningful family involvement throughout treatment. Care is trauma-informed, clinically individualized, and focused on helping each teen develop the emotional skills and self-understanding she needs to sustain progress after discharge.
Most teens stay at Muir Wood for 45–60 days, with some benefiting from up to 90 days of treatment depending on clinical progress and individual circumstances. A multidisciplinary team of licensed clinicians oversees each girl’s care. Programs are gender-separate to promote safety and focus, while treatment remains personalized, inclusive, and affirming of each teen’s identity.
Family involvement is built into every phase of the treatment experience. Parents and caregivers participate in structured family therapy, receive ongoing updates and coaching from the clinical team, and collaborate on transition planning from the earliest weeks—so the progress that begins at Edgewild carries forward into life at home.
Daily life at Edgewild is structured to extend therapeutic work beyond formal sessions. The schedule includes individual and group therapy, academics, movement, and time outdoors, balanced with quieter moments for rest and reflection. Evenings unfold in home-like residences where girls can decompress, process the day, and connect with peers. This intentional rhythm—clinically active days, restorative evenings—helps teens practice new skills in the context of real life, building confidence and capacity along the way.

The Edgewild Campus at a Glance
The Edgewild campus is designed to support the clinical work of stabilization and growth. Set in the tree-lined streets of Arlington Heights, the property offers a quiet, private setting where teens can focus fully on treatment without outside distractions. The neighborhood’s citrus groves, mature landscaping, and open skies give teens consistent access to nature and fresh air throughout their stay.
This setting serves a clinical function, not just an aesthetic one. Exposure to natural light, room to move outdoors, and a quieter sensory environment all support emotional regulation and mental clarity. The campus layout balances shared spaces that encourage connection with quieter areas for individual reflection—helping teens feel both supported and respected as they develop routines and confidence they can carry beyond residential care into their lives.

Girls Residential Treatment Benefits
Residential care at Edgewild gives teenage girls the opportunity to focus fully on their emotional and behavioral well-being in a safe, structured environment. Away from daily stress and anxiety, teens can engage deeply in therapy, build healthy routines, and develop practical skills for managing emotions and relationships.
At Muir Wood Teen, our girls’ program combines individualized therapy, group support, academic guidance, and holistic activities such as mindfulness and art/music therapy. Teens learn coping strategies, improve self-confidence, and gain tools to navigate challenges both during treatment and after returning home.
The Muir Wood Teen Difference
Our team partners closely with parents and caregivers from day one—clear updates, a personalized plan, and real-world tools you can use between sessions – so your loved one can move toward stability, well-being, and lasting wellness alongside peers facing similar challenges.
Some of our key differentiators include:
Specialists in Adolescent Care
Everything we do is built for teens ages 12–17, not adapted from adult models. Our team includes board-certified psychiatrists, highly trained therapists, nurses, educators, and recovery counselors who specialize exclusively in adolescent mental health and substance use treatment. Working as an integrated team, they deliver evidence-based, developmentally appropriate care tailored to each teen’s unique needs.
Environments That Foster Connection and Growth
In serene, nature-rich settings, our campuses are unlike any other. With 24/7 care, teens spend their days as part of a broader community—engaging in therapy, academics, and outdoor activities that strengthen resilience and self-awareness. At night, they return to home-like residences to process, decompress, and connect with others. This balance of community and intimacy creates a unique healing environment where every moment becomes a part of the recovery process.
Expertise in Primary Mental Health + Substance Use
With expertise in treating both primary mental health and co-occurring substance use challenges, our trauma-informed approach helps teens heal deeply and build lasting change. We focus on the whole person—addressing both emotional wellbeing and underlying behavioral patterns—to support lifelong healing.
Support for the Whole Family
Healing doesn’t happen in isolation—it happens together. At Muir Wood, families stay actively involved through therapy, education, and a 16-week aftercare coaching program that builds trust, communication, and stability long after treatment ends.
Accessible, High-Quality Care Covered by Insurance
Muir Wood is committed to removing financial barriers to care by partnering with most major insurance providers, ensuring families can access high-quality, evidence-based treatment when it matters most.
Educational Support that Restores Confidence
Through our WASC-accredited supplemental academic program, students continue their education with personalized support. Success in the classroom becomes a vital step in restoring confidence, structure, and a sense of possibility.
Continuum of Care
When residential treatment is complete, Muir Wood prioritizes a thoughtful, well-coordinated transition to the next level of care. Discharge planning begins early and is guided by each teen’s clinical needs, family context, and home environment.
