Therapy

Therapy is an important component of this Program’s overall design and process. As the students progress through the emotional growth seminars and other emotional growth classes that are offered many issues of the past will arise and the students will effectively deal with these issues. Therapy provides the students with the necessary skills to deal with these issues and replace non working habits with working habits. Students are assigned to a group with a therapist, the same therapist meets with the same students each day in daily group sessions.Yhe therapist also meets with  each student at least once a week individually for issues that need to be addressed outside the group. The therapist will have regular communication with the parents, and as their child progresses sessions will include the parent and child with regular therapy. All therapist are licensed, and have the skills and tools to support the parent and child throughout the entire program.

All therapists at Cross Creek Programs are full time employees, available to the students seven days a week. This availability provides the students and the therapist ample opportunity to establish a good relationship and deal with the issues as they arise. Interaction with the therapist and student provides the students with a distinct advantage that is not available to outside therapist. Because of the technique and availability the Cross Creek therapist are far more effective than many therapists that parents may have tried in the past.

The therapists have many years of experience working with our great, bright and very manipulative students. However, they rely heavily on the communication with the parents to assist in determining behavior patterns of the student.

Students can attend AA/NA meetings on a weekly basis. There meetings are conducted by the student body and monitored by a therapist. AA/NA meetings often invite guest speakers to the program and at times hold school wide educational symposiums for students and staff. These meetings address students’ addictions as well as create solutions to a heathier life style. Parents of students struggling with addictions are encouraged to attend Al-Anon meetings in their local areas.
