The decision to send your child to a therapeutic facility usually happens after exhausting every option you have at home. While safety and accreditation are top concerns, you also want to select the program that is going to be the most beneficial for the unique needs of your troubled teen. Although most parents begin the research process by looking at boot camps in Hawaii, we have found that allowing teens to integrate into an environment a little further from home is more beneficial. Some of the reasons for this include :
· New surroundings that allow teens to begin the process of change without the stigma and burdens of old triggers and influences.
· Temporary and healthy time apart between parents and teens in order to work on individual challenges. While troubled families are at the mercy of old routines, it is nearly impossible to make the personal changes necessary to reestablish the relationship on better terms.
· Therapeutic programs offer respite for parentswho are exhausted by the emotional toll of raising a struggling teen. They can regain their energy while knowing that their son is immersed in a positive environment designed to help him turn his life around and learn to communicate effectively.
Since 2001, parents throughout the country have been entrusting their troubled teens to Liahona Academy rather than a boot camp in Hawaii. Liahona Academy’s location in scenic southern Utah is ideal for the combination of therapy, academics and healthy play required for boys to balance their lives. Each boy works individually with the staff to create a program that will help him overcome challenges and gain the greatest chance for success.
