Explorations Information Details
With nearly 35 years of experience, Explorations is regarded as one of the most impactful transition options available for adolescents who have experienced a breakdown in healthy family functioning or a mental health crisis. Explorations provides families with one of the most valuable steps in the healing journey with their teen by offering them the opportunity to practice making healthy choices in real-world situations. Families and professionals turn to Explorations to provide safe and supported living experiences designed to bridge the gap from destructive decision-making or placement in mental health facilities to a healthy, fulfilling life in ‘the real world’. Explorations cultivates and prioritizes an open and honest partnership between the teen, their parents, and the Explorations team of professionals. Together — and with the support of licensed therapists, skilled adult mentors, a live-in peer group, and the extended community — adolescents are provided opportunities to make healthy, positive choices within safe limits and with necessary support. Unlike short-term placements, the process at Explorations unfolds in real time. Working at life’s pace yields more than immediate rewards. Explorations embraces the ups and downs of life because challenges will continue to present themselves. Explorations equips teens with the tools, strength, self-confidence, and coping skills needed to face life’s toughest moments over time...not just during therapy sessions. Explorations helps teens create a strong platform from which to launch into the next best phase. Teens learn to trust their decisions and the healthy skills they have practiced. In turn, parents begin to trust their teen again and actively participate in this process of growth and change. Explorations recognize that all families are unique. Our approach incorporates personalized strategies for developing healthy relationships and life skills tailored to the needs of each adolescent and their family.
