Residential Treatment Center for Troubled Boys
- Liahona Academy has been helping troubled boys and their families since 2001 and is among the top residential treatment centers in the nation. Liahona Academy's therapeutic program is based on the effective philosophy of a keen balance between "love and discipline". At Liahona, we believe that boys thrive in an environment of "love" and "discipline". Moreover, we believe that boys respond to the help offered when they feel loved, respected and responsible.
- At Liahona Academy, the balance between unconditional love (respect) and accountability (discipline) has been demonstrated to be the perfect combination. Boys respect those who expect "greatness" from them and these boys tend to live up to expectations, both good and bad.
- Boys appreciate those who will hold them accountable; sending the message, "you have what it takes to be great". Over the years we have restored thousands of troubled boys and their families through "love and discipline". Our proven results speak for themselves.
- Liahona Academy is a fully licensed treatment facility that offers multiple levels of care, including Residential Treatment Care, Day Treatment Care and Outpatient Treatment to effectively treat mental health illness and issues. Our mental health treatment team consists of a licensed medical doctor, a licensed psychiatrist, licensed therapists, as well as five registered nurses. All staff members of the treatment team work in conjunction with one another to provide a consistent continuum of care that can address all aspects of implementing a proper individualized treatment plan for each patient. Individual, family, and group therapy sessions are combined with support groups to provide positive mental health treatment and rehabilitation. Our medical team address all physical or mental issues or illness that may be affecting the patient’s mental health. Each aspect of the treatment team work in harmony to insure the psychological, medical, and psychiatric team members work towards effectively treating the issues of each patient in restoring them to physical, mental, and emotional health which can be sustained outside of the treatment facility.
