About us
Located in Petaluma, California, Muir Wood Adolescent and Family Services- Skillman Lane is a premier facility offering specialized mental health treatment and drug rehabilitation services for adolescents aged 12-17. The center provides a comprehensive range of programs, including medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and residential care, designed to address both the physical and emotional aspects of addiction and mental health challenges.
Muir Wood Adolescent and Family Services- Skillman Lane’s residential program is tailored to the unique needs of teenagers. This program includes individual therapy, group therapy, family therapy, and psychological assessments, ensuring a holistic approach to treatment. In addition to traditional therapies, the program offers fitness and nutrition classes, experiential therapies, and peer support. Clients also participate in educational sessions covering topics related to addiction, mental health, and the challenges commonly faced during adolescence. To support long-term recovery, clients may engage in aftercare programming or transition into lower levels of care, such as partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, or outpatient treatment.
The facility’s medication-assisted treatment program combines FDA-approved medications with mental health counseling to provide a dual approach to overcoming addiction. The use of medications helps alleviate cravings and manage withdrawal symptoms, while counseling sessions focus on preventing relapse and addressing the underlying issues that contribute to addiction. As clients transition out of residential treatment, they can continue with medication-assisted treatment under the supervision of medical professionals to maintain their progress.
Muir Wood Adolescent and Family Services is a CARF and Joint Commission-accredited residential treatment program, underscoring its commitment to the highest standards of care. The facility operates 16 residential centers across Sonoma County, Clovis, and Riverside, California, where teen boys and girls are treated separately in a nurturing and structured environment. The program emphasizes compassion and understanding, fostering an atmosphere of kindness rather than confrontation.
In addition to its clinical services, Muir Wood offers an on-campus, state-recognized learning program accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, ensuring that clients maintain their academic progress during treatment. The center is licensed by the California Department of Social Services (DSS), certified by the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) for residential detoxification and treatment, and has earned an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau (BBB). Muir Wood is in-network with most major insurance providers, including Aetna, Anthem, Blue Shield, Cigna, Halcyon, Health Net Federal Services, Kaiser Permanente, Magellan, MHN, Optum, and TRICARE, making its exceptional care accessible to a wide range of families.
With a strong focus on individualized care and a comprehensive approach to treatment, Muir Wood Adolescent and Family Services- Skillman Lane stands out as a leader in adolescent mental health and substance abuse recovery.

We understand that choosing an addiction treatment center can be overwhelming, especially with so many options, promises, and marketing messages. Thatโs why weโve developed a clear, standardized rating system designed to cut through the noise and highlight what truly matters: safety, quality of care, and transparency. Our goal is to give individuals and families the information they need to make confident, informed decisions during a critical time.
In this guide, we explain exactly how we rate treatment centersโfrom accreditation and staff credentials to therapy options, facility environment, and family involvement. Youโll see how we assign scores, award badges, and update listings to ensure accuracy and fairness. Most importantly, our system focuses on elevating centers that prioritize ethical, evidence-based care, not just those with the best marketing. This way, you can trust that the ratings you see reflect meaningful standards that help you find the right fit for lasting recovery.
