Help for Parents of At-risk Youth in Maryland
Maryland Behavioral Health Administration: The vision of DHMH is lifelong health and wellness for all Marylanders. We work together to promote and improve the health and safety of all Marylanders through disease prevention, access to care, quality management, and community engagement. Maryland’s health care delivery system consists of public and private hospitals, nursing homes, outpatient clinics, home health care services, hospices, providers, and health educators, among others. As a public health department, our goal is to improve the health status of every Maryland resident and to ensure access to quality health care.
WinGate Wilderness Therapy is the optimal choice for parents in Maryland who are wanting a leading outdoor wilderness program and wilderness camp program to provide guidance for their struggling child undergoing alcohol abuse, adoption/attachment disorders, or academic failure. Since it can be difficult to work with highly resistant teens and young men and women, most programs rely heavily upon punishments and other disciplinary tactics in order to manage a teen’s or young adult’s behavior. Here at WinGate, we recognize that the situation of one struggling child may not apply to all of our teenage students.
It’s our absolute respect for every teenage student (and family) that we work with that sets our leading wilderness camp program and outdoor wilderness program apart from the others. WinGate’s practitioners acknowledge and appreciate the everyday problems that teenagers and young men and women from Maryland are faced with every day. With decades of collective experience in the accredited wilderness treatment center industry, our therapists can quickly identify and help process addiction (gaming) issues, issues related to depression, and the causes for academic failure.
Our approach to Family treatment and Life-coaching has improved the lives of numerous struggling teenage students and families. We see that at-risk teenagers and young men and women can grow to be healthy adults with a desire to succeed! WinGate understands that in order for our struggling teenage students to experience real transformation, the entire family needs to be part of the guidance that our practitioners provide.
