Therapeutic Programs for Young Adults Texas

As one of the superior therapeutic programs for young adults from Texas, Expanse Wilderness assists young adult men or women who may be wrestling with obstacles related to their mental or emotional health, such as process addiction (gaming, gambling), sex addiction (pornography), autism/asperger's (ASD), eating disorders, and more. Although Expanse Wilderness may be located outside of Texas, we accept young adults from all over the United States.

When a emerging adult enters a wilderness, therapeutic program for young adults, they are leaving their unhealthy environment behind for a remote setting that allows them to focus on their frequent challenges. Without distractions and negative influences, they can rehabilitate and gain insight into their past behaviors. During this time, they are able to develop the skills necessary to begin making better decisions in the future.

Wilderness therapy incorporates several types of therapy, including Family treatment, Talk therapy, and Life-coaching, that come together to help troubled emerging adults from Texas develop the confidence and life skills they need to return home and continue on a better path. Emerging adults wrestling with process addiction (gaming, gambling) or sex addiction (pornography) are also introduced to the relapse prevention skills that assist with maintaining their sobriety after returning home.

A three-year study found that young adult men or women who attend therapeutic programs for young adults have a significant recovery from their dysfunctional attitudes and behaviors, while also significantly enhancing their life effectiveness. This is due in large part to the natural and restorative environment, as well as the group milieu, that helps shift their world views while providing innumerable opportunities for learning and growth.

Programs for Young Adults with No Direction

Providing effective programs for young adults with no direction, Expanse Wilderness provides our emotionally challenged adult wilderness participants with the therapy they need to rehabilitate from their current challenges that are affecting their happiness and success. Research has found that there are more benefits to attending a wilderness treatment center far from home, especially for emerging adults wrestling with sex addiction (pornography) and/or process addiction (gaming, gambling).

Wilderness therapy requires struggling adults to leave behind their unhealthy environment and influences and enter a serene and healing setting that is entirely devoid of any distractions, including TV, radio, and phones. This allows the young adult man or woman to focus solely on why they are here and working to overcome their obstacles. In our small groups, the young adult clients engage in therapy, while also developing their independent living skills.
