How much counseling will my teen receive?

Counseling and Support

It probably won't surprise you to know that teens don't like the office-oriented design of traditional therapy. Counseling at Shelterwood occurs all the time - in a variety of methods. We provide both individual and family counseling at least one time each week and group counseling two times a week by a therapist with an MA degree. But the whole point of a residential teen treatment program is to provide a therapeutic, 24/7 environment where teen counseling and observation is taking place constantly--where real life essentially happens at school and during meals, while doing chores and hanging out during recreation. It's the transformational advantage of residential treatment.

And at Shelterwood, it's not just about the quantity of care, it's the quality. All true restoration of the heart and soul comes from Jesus Christ. Our entire staff - from cooks, teachers and counselors - are nurturing their own personal relationships with God. Our entire organization at Doulos Ministries is founded in Christian faith and values.
