Drawing from the collective experience of over 90 years of wilderness and experiential-based therapy we incorporate a variety of interventions drawing from a vast array of experiential modalities. Research has proven the success of wilderness and expedition interventions in helping troubled adolescents overcome traumatic life experiences such as abuse, learn coping mechanisms, and gain the ability to recognize triggers that cause adolescents to initiate self-destructive patterns.
Trauma shows up in a variety of ways from withdrawal or dissociation to anger and rage. When an individual has experienced trauma, it may become lodged in the body. Although the original experience or “danger” has passed, the body/mind may become “stuck” in fi­ght/flight or freeze responses. The result is emotional and nervous system deregulation. A wide variety of unhealthy coping mechanisms are then employed to compensate for this deregulation. By simultaneously treating the symptoms and the underlying cause, healing is more sustainable and long-term.
Understand The Bio-physical Dynamics Of Trauma
Trauma is the result of the Body-mind’s natural protective mechanism and response to danger gone awry. When there is any sort of threat or perceived threat, all animals including humans enter into a physiological state of fi­ght or flight. If neither of these actions is successfully accomplished, we go into the freeze state, which is simultaneously numbing and activated. By understanding this response and its natural course of resolution, our clinicians can then support the healthy emotional growth progression towards more long-term healing.
