Realizing that your teen daughter’s behavioral issues require more skilled help than you can offer can be troubling and emotional. Making the decision to send her to a full time facility can be a helpful move, but only if it effective for her and offers you peace of mind. At Havenwood Academy, we understand that it is difficult for parents to trust strangers with their child and we strive to offer solutions that have a history of success. Common issues like defiance, substance abuse, depression, sexual promiscuity and anxiety can have long lasting effects on teens and our qualified staff is able to help teen girls identify their personal issues and develop ways to overcome them.

We have developed an environment that is based on trust, accountability and love and place a particular emphasis on positive peer culture and individual leadership skills.

We offer many treatment modalities, which increases each student’s chances of personal introspection and motivation. Other benefits of our curriculum include:
- Empowering teen girls to own their recovery and take charge of their future. We believe that confidence is healthy and necessary for recovery.
- An environment that encourages peer interaction and the formation of healthy bonds as a way to increase the effectiveness of treatment.
- Close collaboration between departments regarding each student’s dietary, therapeutic and clinical agenda to make sure that each staff member is on the same page for each girl.

How Is Havenwood Academy Unique?
As you research facilities, you may be confused by the variety of options available throughout the nation and wonder which one is right for your daughter. It is important to assess each possible program and their speciality in conjunction with your teen’s most pressing needs. At Havenwood Academy, we have adopted methods that are developmentally appropriate for adolescents and the way they develop physically and emotionally. When creating a treatment plan, we take each girl’s personality, goals, interests, history and issues into account. Among the specific solutions we offer at Havenwood Academy are:
- Talk Therapy – We employ both individual and group therapy in our program in order to give each student the chance to explore her own issues while also learning from and helping her peers.
- Hands-on Therapy – Adolescents respond well to experiential therapy and hands on activities allow them to expand on the work they do in their talk therapy sessions. Through recreation, music, art and equine therapy, our student can explore a wide range of options.
- Family Therapy – The recovery of the family relationship is one that we feel is essential for healing and can be tricky to manage without help. We guide both our students and their parents toward a place of unity, peace and forgiveness.
- DBT Therapy – One type of therapy that we are qualified to present is dialectical behavioral therapy, or DBT. This option helps teens learn how to alter their negative behavior patterns and develop better ways of coping through a cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness approach.
- EMDR Therapy – Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or EMDR has been proven to be highly successful for individuals that deal with PTSD or particularly disturbing memories. Many parents feel confident with this type of therapy because it’s high history of success as well as the fact that it is non-invasive.

Chase was very fortunate to start in this industry as a struggling 17 year old kid looking for a mentor and something to be passionate about. Wilderness therapy was Chase’s first stop in this industry and was truly a transcendental experience for him. Chase has an enormous love for this line of work and the power that it has in creating change in everyone involved. Chase’s biggest belief is the power a mentor, strong, healthy relationships, and accountability can have on anyone, especially youth. Taking a very relational approach to his work, Chase has always been very relatable to the students he works with. Being able to understand and relate to a vast variety of the same struggles as a lot of the students he works with has been able to help him continue to grow, learn, and teach. Chase believes that with great rapport and trust, he can use his experience to continue to coach and train new staff, and has the ability to find those staff with the passion for this industry, and help them grow. His love and passion can be felt the moment you talk with Chase about this industry and he passes that on to others he works with. In his spare time you will find Chase cheering for the Eagles, Yankees, and Mavericks, hanging out with his brother, learning more about Eastern Psychology, and continuing to grow and learn.
