Student Therapy Program
Student Therapy Program
Red Rock Canyon School uses a multi-therapeutic model. Specific treatment modalities utilized under this model include the following:
Group Therapy
Group therapy includes:
- Open discussion groups
- 12-Step groups
- Social skills workshops
- Educational lectures
- Student community groups
- Leadership training groups
- Anger management/victim awareness groups
- Positive peer groups
- Special interest groups designed for a particular population of youth
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy is provided to help the students gain insight into their behavior and gives them an opportunity to establish a trusting relationship with their counselor.
In this setting students are able to process issues that might be too sensitive for them to share with the group.
Substance Abuse Counseling
Substance abuse counseling opportunities are offered three to four times a week for those students with addiction problems. These meetings consist of a combination of:
- AA/NA meetings
- Hazelden's Living in Balance Program
- Adolescent Chemical Dependency Recovery Workbook
- Positive Peer Culture Groups
- Individual counseling sessions
Our Positive Peer Culture Groups are open forum. The youth are encouraged to discuss their issues on a daily basis. It is an essential part of our process to allow the youth the freedom to discuss these issues on their time instead of feeling forced into recovery.
The Positive Peer Culture meetings allow creates a safe, friendly environment where students feel care and concern from their peers who are in their same situation discussing the same issues. They realize they are not alone in how they feel.
Our AA/NA meetings are held on-site a minimum of two times a week, with visiting guests scheduled on a periodic basis. Students are also encouraged to read from the AA & NA Big Book as a complement to their 12-Step work.
Family Therapy
Family therapy is available to visiting families on a quarterly basis, as well as being an integral part of the Family Weekend Program. During quarterly visitations, the family and student meet together with the student's primary therapist. During the Family Weekend, parents and their children participate in family therapy sessions and also take part in daily Parent Groups held with the other families in attendance.
