Outback Therapeutic Expeditions: A Legacy of Effective Wilderness Therapy Programs for Struggling Teens

Outback Therapeutic Expeditions is a leading wilderness therapy program that has been helping troubled teens overcome their challenges and achieve lasting change since 2001. With a focus on experiential learning, adventure, and community building, Outback offers a unique and effective approach to healing that has helped thousands of young people transform their lives.

At Outback, we understand that traditional therapy approaches may not be enough for some teens who are struggling with issues such as anger, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, trauma, or behavioral problems. That's why we offer an immersive wilderness experience that combines evidence-based therapeutic interventions with outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, rock climbing, and more.

Our programs are designed to help teens develop self-awareness and self-confidence while also learning important life skills such as communication, problem-solving, leadership, and teamwork. By living in the wilderness for weeks or months at a time with a group of peers under the guidance of experienced therapists and field instructors,

teens have the opportunity to break free from negative patterns of behavior and thought while also building meaningful relationships with others who share similar struggles.

One key aspect of our approach is our emphasis on family involvement. We believe that healing is most effective when it involves the entire family system rather than just the individual teen. That's why we offer regular family therapy sessions throughout each program as well as workshops and retreats for parents.

Another important aspect of our approach is our commitment to ongoing support after graduation from our programs. We recognize that lasting change takes time and effort beyond just completing a program in the wilderness. That's why we provide aftercare services such as individual therapy sessions,

support groups for alumni families,

and referrals to local resources in each teen's home community.

At Outback Therapeutic Expeditions,

we are proud to have earned accreditation from both The Joint Commission (TJC) - one of the highest standards in healthcare accreditation -and The Association for Experiential Education (AEE). These accreditations reflect our commitment to providing safe,

effective care based on best practices in both healthcare

and experiential education fields.
