Therapeutic Placements

Most people have no prior experience with therapeutic programs, wilderness therapy, young-adult transitional living communities, or adult treatment facilities, and this unfamiliarity often leads to confusion or hesitation. While this process is different and unfamiliar to many people, we strive to demystify it and show you how and why certain therapeutic placements could be the optimal choice for your child, adolescent, young adult, or adult family member. We know how overwhelming this can be and understand what it feels like to sort through the options. The good news is that, from personal experience, we also know about the good work being done by many programs. 

Based on all available information about your child, adolescent, or adult family member, our goal is to provide you with a carefully selected set of options. Starting with a consultation, we will exchange information with you so that you understand how we work and can help you arrive at the best possible solution for your situation. At that time, we will also ask you for an overview of your child or other family member and the various factors that led you to contact us. Once we agree to work together, we will ask you to provide all written documentation so that we may evaluate it in the context of the services offered by various therapeutic programs. We will then contact appropriate programs and communicate with them regarding your child, adolescent, or adult family member. With our guidance, you can then evaluate the options and select the program best aligned to your family’s needs.
