Why Liahona Academy Is the Best Choice for Troubled Boys

A qualified therapeutic program for troubled boys should be the first place parents turn to when their child is in need of professional help or therapeutic intervention. Bad behavior in teenage boys is often the outward manifestation of an inward issue. At Liahona Academy, we treat boys from ages 13 to 17 and we know best how to support and help them fully understand the root of the issue to figure out how to overcome it. Our experienced, qualified staff blends academic, therapeutic and recreational programs together into an experience that makes a real difference. We have found that troubled boys in our program not only increase their grade point averages, self-esteem, and their hopes for the future, they also gain confidence in their ability to handle conflict when it presents itself.

Why Enroll in Our Residential Treatment Center for Troubled Boys?

There are several advantages to sending your troubled teenage son to our all-boys treatment center. Besides the fact that we have more than 20 years of qualified experience working with adolescent boys, we are located in Utah. Our state has some of the toughest regulatory laws on record when it comes to the teen help industry, so you know that Liahona Academy is exceeding some of the strictest laws in the country. There are three components to our program that you should know about, and each one contributes to each boy’s overall health, wellness, and well-being. Therapy: Liahona Academy has licensed and experienced therapists and counselors to provide individual and group counseling. Typical teen issues include but are not limited to ADD/ADHD, abandonment and adoption issues, abuse, depression, trauma, anxiety, low self-esteem, oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) and substance abuse. Regular therapy that is consistent and frequent provides the best chance for troubled youth to rehabilitate. Academics: The academic part of Liahona Academy’s program is run by licensed teachers and helps teen boys not only catch up to their grade level but helps instill a love of learning that lasts a lifetime. By incorporating an individualized education plan for each boy, we help teens achieve at or near grade-level performance. We even have life skills classes and can prepare boys for college or vocational training. Recreation: Troubled teen boys are often in such a negative place that their world doesn’t seem very interesting. Sometimes they don’t know how to have real fun or be entertained in positive and healthy ways. Our recreational component means that teen boys learn to love life again, and our activities include hiking, biking, camping, water sports, skiing and more. Boys learn how to set and reach goals, how to build trust, and develop the self-confidence they need to succeed in the world. Moving your son to Utah may seem a little far from you at first, but in reality, it’s just a short distance away. Also, Liahona Academy’s location can be a wonderful option for troubled teen boys because getting away from all their current negative pressures, bad friends and former habits can be a good thing. Liahona Academy is ready to welcome teens from all over the country.
