teens with a chance to heal and change within the wilderness, while
simultaneously providing families with their own resources, growth

If you're a wilderness environmentalist type, love hiking and to an extent community building person, then you'll love it. Otherwise it may be an overwhelming experience. I had to control my emotions as well as of those I was responsible for. Students could be unpredictable and spontaneous, but hey, it's the basic nature of our JD. Pay is good and seems reasonable with the tasks associated. Management is supportive throughout but yes it could be hard sometimes due to changing scenarios. If you're good at talking and understanding people, you may cherish this wilderness isolation for a long time. Job becomes tough sometime, but the pay is good. If you like outdoors and enjoy doing fieldwork, then you'll love Blue Ridge. Wilderness therapy programs tend to blend your extrovert side with the introvert aspects of the students. There is a reason their parents have chosen wilderness therapy as a "possible" form for bringing their beloved child back to "normalcy". The administration is supportive but has some challenges ready for you depending upon the cases you'll be assigned. Patience is the key to finding that right moment to engage with these troubled individuals. Anyway, I'll definitely recommend Blue Ridge therapeutic wilderness folks as a decent job provides. Thank you.
