About Us
Ever wish you could be a “fly on the wall” at a wilderness therapy program? People often wonder what kinds of issues come up with troubled teens and young adults in wilderness therapy, what the students are like, how the field instructors manage conflicts, and what a day in the life is like.
Well, this is your chance. Wilderness Therapy Programs is a blog from the field that gives you an insider’s look at the rewards and challenges of life in the field. This site originated because the field therapists, instructors, and other staff at the wilderness programs of Aspen Education Group wanted a place to share their knowledge and insights.
Aspen Education Group employs the most well-trained, dedicated staff in the field of wilderness therapy. Our field therapists have master’s and doctorate degrees with specialties in a wide range of areas, and many of our field instructors have wilderness first responder certifications as well as expertise working with at-risk youth.
This is your opportunity to be on the front line of wilderness therapy, side by side with the field instructors and therapists who make a difference in the lives of teens and their families every day.
