Therapy Gone Wild, Wilderness That Is

When your child first entered this world you probably thought there was no greater miracle. The wonderment of being the parent of this incredible and perfect human being was overwhelming. The months and years following that day only reinforce how great parenting can be of a child. Then that child becomes a teen and you find yourself with new feelings of wonderment. You wonder how this violent, angry, and sometimes out-of-control person can be the child you held so protectively in your arms all those years ago.

These are difficult times and as hard as it may be some days; you have to remember it is your child under all that emotional display. If your child experiences any sort of trauma, they are more likely to lash out at the ones they love most- you. Your child still needs your protection and that involves finding out what has caused this behavior, and once identified, needs help to deal with it. Wingate Wilderness Therapy can help you and your troubled teen.
