The wilderness is an outstanding method used in treating troubled teens. Leaving behind the ongoing distractions of computers, cell phones and unwise peers, teens feel free to discard their "image" and understand themselves in a deeper way. Moving outside their comfort zone, these teens start learning new skills and begin to see life from a different perspective. While in a wilderness program, teens have 24-hour support from field guides and therapists who encourage them to begin replacing negative thoughts and habits with positive ones. As the trip progresses, the teen begins to see a natural environment teeming with positive life and beauty. Soon, the same sense of a proper environment can transfer to the living system of the troubled teen.
