Option #1:
The Total Transformation Program

Free Trial?
30-Day Free Trial (Costs less for the full program than for two days in a school for troubled teens)

Guarantee:
100% Satisfaction Guarantee

Intervention Level:
In-Home (can be supported by local therapy at a fraction of the cost of residential schools for troubled teens)

Parental Involvement:
Maximum

Long-Term Effectiveness:
Builds family relationships; Solutions developed in the home environment are more easily generalized to day-to-day life, and are more likely to be permanent; Cost analysis shows likelihood of guaranteed results (see the 100% satisfaction guarantee) for minimal financial investment; High investment of parental time and effort - Yet the "time and effort" investment is key to the recovery of troubled teens, and the enhancement of the teen's relationship with his/her parents.

Option #2:

Residential Placement (Schools for Troubled Teens, Wilderness Programs, Troubled Teen Boarding Schools, RTC's) - This link will take you to the contact page for FREE PLACEMENT ASSISTANCE

Free Trial?
None (Costs between $4,800 and $19,000 per Month, for 9-18 Months)

Guarantee:
None

Intervention Level:
Residential (out-of-home, group living)

Parental Involvement:
Minimal (In less sophisticated residential schools for troubled teens parents are often referred to as THE CAUSE of the troubled teen's problems - Schools that practice this philosophy have little regard for the value of parental involvement in the intervention process - This is precisely the opposite of The Total Transformation Program, wherein the parent's involvement and strength are critical to the troubled teen's recovery)

Long-Term Effectiveness:
Schools for troubled teens are often seen by teens as an extended arbirary, punishing event, rather than a loving act. Unaddressed, this perception can permanently fracture family relationships; Solutions created in troubled teen schools, where the dynamics of true family and social life are not present, have an unreliable track record for permanent recovery; Cost analysis shows no guarantee of success for maximum financial investment; Little or no investment of parental time and effort except for periodic phone calls, planned parent visits, and (depending upon the program) family therapy via telephone

Option Comparison:

Absent there being a real and present danger to self, others, or property, The Total Transformation Program is the better "stand-alone" option. However, if placement in a school for troubled teens is necessary, The Total Transformation Program should ALSO be implemented in the home environment to prepare the parents for the teen's return home.
Effective management of post-intervention teens in the home environment is critical to long-term success.

Does Your Child Need a School for Troubled Teens?

Troubled Teen Problems and Symptoms: If your teen is struggling it is likely that he or she is displaying symptoms of deeper issues. Sometimes those issues are minor, in that they don't represent something that can't be addressed without intervention. And sometimes they are serious. Nonetheless the symptoms of troubled teen issues, which range from defiance to depression to violence to substance abuse can represent critical issues themselves. The dilemma for parents is whether or not either the symptoms or the core issues (or both) warrant placement in a school for troubled teens.

Basic Questions - Evaluating Placement Need: Without consultation with a licensed therapist answering that question may be difficult. However, there are some basic questions that may help: 1) Is your teen a danger to him/herself? 2) Is your teen a danger to others? 3) Is the likelihood of substantial property damage high, absent some sort of intervention? 4) Will your teen self-destruct academically without intervention? 5) Is your teen psychologically or emotionally incapable of meeting his/her own needs?

Answering these questions is more simple. If you feel that you are unable to deal with your teen's symptoms, not to mention the deeper core issues, AND you feel that immediate intervention is necessary, you should seriously research and consider a school for troubled teens.

An Intervention Alternative: Even if you feel your teen's issues are too extreme for you to handle (or if the cost of residential treatment is too high) you may wish to implement The Total Transformation Program. As a matter of fact, we suggest this approach EVEN IF a school for troubled teens is employed. Why? Your teen will eventually return home. Other teens in your home may also exhibit similar symptoms. Properly preparing yourself to handle a post-treatment teen is critical to ensure the long-term success of your child.

Teen Help Without Residential Placement: The Total Transformation program may even make it possible for you to avoid residential placement in a School for Troubled Teens. Most importantly this program offers a free trial AND a guarantee of satisfaction.

Did we say that was the most important thing? We were wrong. Successfully helping your teen at home will save you tens of thousands of dollars, and at the same time will enhance your relationship with your child. The likelihood for long-term change is much greater if your teen overcomes his issues in the environment in which they originated.
