Wilderness Programs

The highly successful Solacium wilderness program model was specifically designed for adolescents struggling with emotional and behavioral problems. Troubled teens often engage in negative behaviors such as substance abuse, school avoidance, manipulation, oppositional and defiant behaviors, and running away to mask their internal conflicts. Common diagnoses include: Depression, ADD/ADHD, Anxiety, Substance Abuse, Attachment Disorder and Bipolar Disorder. Our therapists are committed to providing a safe and therapeutic wilderness environment by forming genuine relationship with teens, allowing them to open up and feel supported when confronting their issues.

Our wilderness program model is designed to inspire troubled teens to achieve personal change, not just for themselves but for others. Our clinicians and field staff implement therapeutic exercises to help students identify and address the underlying causes of negative behaviors while reevaluating their own sense of self worth and discover their inherent strengths.
