Evidence-Based Treatment

The individuals who choose Agave Ridge Behavioral Hospital can benefit from our dedication to providing evidence-based treatment. The services we offer incorporate interventions that have been shown to promote lifelong healing and recovery. 

Every patient who receives care at our hospital takes part in a comprehensive evaluation that helps our team determine which interventions would serve them best.
