Yes We Can Youth Clinics provides residential treatment to young adults from around the world, aged 13 to 25, who are experiencing mental health difficulties, substance misuse, or behavioural problems. The physical and emotional safety of the young people we treat (who we call fellows) is non-negotiable. As such, we provide a structured setting that is full of support. We know that the journey of recovery can be daunting for our fellows and their families, and that’s why we go the extra mile to ensure that everyone feels comfortable, supported, and heard.
At Yes We Can Youth Clinics we hold ourselves to the highest standards.
We are certified by the Dutch Healthcare Inspectorate and hold ISO 9001:2008 and HKZ (a Dutch quality assessment accreditation for the healthcare sector) certifications. Moreover, we are officially accredited by 72 governing bodies, including the Dutch government, other EU governments, and the United Kingdom’s National Health Service (NHS). Our services are recognised by the European Commission, over 400 municipalities, and primary health insurers in the Netherlands, the rest of the EU, the USA, and beyond (such as Blue Cross/Blue Shield, AFSPA, Generali, JSIS, Cigna, CZ, VGZ, Achmea, and Menzis).

Our fellows are in the care of an integrated team comprising licensed psychiatrists, registered clinical psychologists, a comprehensive medical staff, expert-by-experience counsellors, and youth coaches. These professionals all work together to provide effective, compassionate, and holistic care. We pride ourselves on walking alongside our fellows, celebrating their worth and capacity for growth while guiding them towards a healthy, fulfilling, and sustainable future.

To provide our fellows with maximum safety and support, the following staff members are available 24/7:
Our youth coaches live alongside the fellows, guiding them through the programme whilst also offering supervision, safety, and emotional support. The coaches act as older siblings to the fellows, and often have personal experience in overcoming the problems that Yes We Can treats. Naturally, they also serve as an example in this regard. Since the coaches are with the fellows constantly, they are able to provide our therapeutic team with crucial, real-time information about progress, concerns, and the overall atmosphere.
While our fellows share similarities and find recognition, hope, and healing through a group therapy process, we recognise the importance of addressing each fellow’s individual needs. We help young people from around the world who have had diverse and dynamic experiences. After identifying the path to recovery for a fellow, we help them walk it through a comprehensive approach. From personal therapy sessions to a diverse sports and activities programme, we use multiple avenues to achieve a holistic methodology. Evidence-based treatments such as psychiatric consultation, cognitive therapy, psycho-education, and family coaching & counselling are combined with innovative approaches, including digital tools, to support each fellow’s unique journey.

We understand the gravity of entrusting us with your child. The journey of recovery is daunting not only for the person who undertakes it, but also for their family.

We are your partners in guiding your child towards a healthier, fulfilling, and more sustainable future.
