If you are struggling with your teen, you have probably tried a number of ways to get their behavior under control.  If local resources have proven inadequate, there are many effective options for parents who are very worried abouit their teen's future.

Wilderness Therapy, Therapeutic Boarding Schools, and Residential Treatment programs are just some of the options available.

 

Wilderness Therapy

 These short-term, high-impact therapeutic programs get teens back to basics.

Therapeutic Boarding Schools

 These schools offer an element traditional boarding schools do not: a therapeutic milieu where clinical staff can address behavioral problems such as depression, oppositional defiance, and substance abuse while your teen continues to earn academic credit.

Residential Treatment

 These programs also often offer academic credit and include a more rigorous therapeutic program. They are best for teens with more acute behavioral problems or more pervasive substance abuse issues.
