Our Programs
This program is a four-day intensive treatment intervention filled
with learning, growth, and fun, which occurs deep in the wilderness
of Northern Wisconsin. In addition to our four-day intensive program,
we offer Vision Refresher programs. Your child will receive at least
two individual therapy sessions and six group therapy sessions. We
offer many life-impacting lessons, from communicating with others,
to intensive internal self-focus.
Our Program's Philosophy
The peace and harmony of pristine nature has an incredible capacity
to heal. In our program we harness nature’s potential to help youth
in their healing process. Youth who have lived in difficult environments
are rarely able to sense the calmness that an immersion into the wilderness
can provide. Few youth today have experienced the wild. When experiencing
a new environment, vulnerability is created. We create vulnerable
situations in many ways - low ropes courses and treks deep into the
wilderness are two examples. Vulnerability helps to build trust quickly,
and trust is a catalyst for the therapeutic process. Our program is
filled with both treatment and fun. In off-time, youth can explore
and learn in the deep woods of Wisconsin. This combination wilderness
and vulnerability is effective with youth who have been through an
array of standard treatment interventions, and it maintains their
interest level. We pick our youth throughout the state.
