About Havenwood Academy
Havenwood Academy is a long-term residential treatment school based in Cedar City, Utah that supports young women ages approximately 12 to 18 who have experienced complex trauma and attachment issues. The institution emphasizes strong, trusting relationships among staff, students and families as a primary vehicle for healing and growth. The school is licensed by the Utah Department of Human Services and accredited by the Joint Commission for behavioral health and by Cognia for its educational component.
Trauma-Informed Therapy Tailored to Young Women
Havenwood offers a holistic program that integrates residential living, personalized education, and evidence-based therapy for teenage girls who have significant trauma histories (including many adopted females) and require a structured, supportive environment. Their therapeutic services include individual, group and family therapy, experiential interventions such as equine therapy, trauma-specific approaches like eye movement therapy (EMDR) and Brainspotting, and an academic program with low student-to-teacher ratios and flexible pacing designed for young women who have struggled in traditional school systems.
A Nurturing, Home-Like Campus Designed for Safety
The campus is designed to feel safe and home-like, with residences that promote comfort and personalization, and a “Tree House” residence option for students needing extra care with nearly 1:1 staff ratio. The school offers financial resource handling to help families access treatment, including accepting Medicaid from multiple states, school district funding, and adoption assistance programs for eligible families.
