Each connection, each relationship is inked deeply in my heart. Life will go on.

You have greatly impacted my life. I look forward to the future.

The model of treatment the program uses is called Dialectical Behaviour Therapy or “DBT”. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy is considered a best practice for the treatment of high risk, self-harming behaviours along with accompanying unhealthy behaviours and/or disorders which are routinely found to be underlying the self-harming and/or suicidal behaviours in youth.

​

During their stay in the program the youth and their family will have all of the following available to them:

​

  • Individual therapy for the youth

  • Multifamily skills group for youth and family members

  • Therapeutic milieu for individualized support and coaching

  • Healthy life skills programming

  • Phone coaching between youth and the individual therapist

  • Phone coaching between family members and training facilitators

  • Family sessions
