I second Alexander Rand. He's excellent with people in this age group - very good at establishing a rapport. He's also extremely well educated and has great hashkafos. Here's a video of him talking about trauma so you can see his personality - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4nCelx8zAs

Dr. Akiva Perlman is also amazing. He's a very compassionate, kind, intelligent and well educated therapist who specializes in treating addiction. You can find videos on Youtube of him giving speeches at Amudim and Ohel events on the topic of addiction. Here's one - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0ZFSAxpPg8

I would send my child to either of these therapists without thinking twice.

Chabad Treatment Center in LA. 3 month program typically but some guys stay for only a month. They have a great success rate, help the guys get started with AA, get therapy, group therapy....
