Caron Treatment Centers has announced the launch of an expanded range of mental health and trauma services for teens, adults, and their families at its newly updated Caron Outpatient Treatment Center in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania. The new service offerings will complement its existing substance use disorder (SUD) assessment, outpatient treatment, and recovery support programs at the center.

The institute will be led by Eric Youngstrom, PhD, a psychologist who specializes in the relationship between mood and psychopathology, and the clinical assessment of children and families. Dr Youngstrom will join Nationwide Children’s as the institute’s inaugural director on February 1, 2024.
