THERAPY

OUR THERAPEUTIC APPROACH

Research-based techniques used to help your child succeed.

Individualized Treatment

Every child has a different set of needs, there’s no one-size-fits-all treatment. We understand this and reflect it in each student’s treatment plan.

Personalized Coaching

Each student gets assigned a coaching team member who will help him with goals, objectives, and feedback throughout each week.

Group Therapy

Students will have daily group therapy sessions, which can include social skill building, music group, goals group, reflection groups, and many others.

Family Connection

Our family connections enhance confidence, resilience, and relationship-building

Recreational Therapy

Students will have a weekly recreational activity (rock climbing, cycling, etc.) to help push students out of their box and learn skills to build self-esteem and ability.

Treatment Environment

Our curated environment promotes prosocial behavior, interpersonal relationships, conflict resolution, and community living skills.

EVIDENCE-BASED, CUTTING-EDGE THERAPY

At New Focus Academy, we help adolescents struggling to form and maintain meaningful relationships. We also teach students methods to improve their functional living skills including self-care, homework, chores, and leisure planning.

We help to empower these students by teaching and practicing social, coping, organizational, and self-care skills. As they succeed in the program, they become more confident and self-assured as they deal with day to day life.

Positive Reinforcement, Positive Outcomes

We don’t just want to reward our students, we want them to understand the process and how to work on self-improvement. Through the use of positive reinforcement techniques, we work with the parents, treatment team, and coaches to identify a student’s genuine goals and how to best reach them. Our relationship-based, positively-oriented approach helps our students succeed.

BUILDING CONFIDENCE

Oftentimes, our students are too familiar with failure and it’s discouraged them from trying. Our therapeutic approach boosts self-esteem and revives the confidence needed to take steps forward and try new things.

INCREASED INDEPENDENCE

With a strengthened self-esteem, students are able to move towards independence with stronger footing. They’re no longer paralyzed by the fear of failure and can cope with challenges.

EMOTIONAL GROWTH

Part of independence is being able to regulate and express yourself in a healthy manner. Over time, our students learn how to do this in a way that’s transferable back into the real world.

REACHING FOR A HIGHER QUALITY OF LIFE
