Wilderness Therapy Helping Kentucky Young Adults

 

Young Adults from Kentucky find Healing from Wilderness Therapy

With high expectations during the crucial transitional period of young adulthood, it is no wonder that so many young men and women struggle during this time. Wilderness therapy designed for Kentucky young adults offers a powerful opportunity to realize who they are, where they want to go, and what they need to do to get there.

Some young women and men struggle to launch into successful academic careers, others find a lack of motivation to pursue their highest dreams. No matter what our young adults are having difficulty with, wilderness therapy is a powerful therapeutic intervention that helps interrupt negative thinking and behavior patterns. By helping students identify their core beliefs, we can start to remove unhealthy thought patterns and replace them with positive beliefs that support the changes they are making.

 

Finding Real, Lasting Change at Wilderness Therapy For Kentucky Young Adults

 

BlueFire Pulsar is a wilderness therapy program for young adults ages 18-28. Our program is designed to work with the unique needs of this age group, like communication skills, transition planning, adventure therapy, and more. The goal is healthy relationships (with self and others) and gaining independence. Based in Idaho, BlueFire Pulsar supports Kentucky young adults as they rediscover their true selves.

How can three months of wilderness therapy provide life-long change? With wilderness therapy, young adults participate in a life-changing opportunity that helps them see themselves for who they really are. Nature does not respond to attempts to manipulate, and avoidance and distraction patterns have real consequences. It is transformative for young adults to see the impacts of their decisions in real-time. Of course, this is all done with the help of highly trained therapists, experienced field guides, and a supportive peer group.

 

Empowering Young Adults from Kentucky through Adventure Therapy

Based in the picturesque high desert of south central Idaho, BlueFire Pulsar serves young people from Kentucky that need to take time to refocus on the direction of their lives. With our Adventure Therapy Program, we utilize scalable activities that are designed to be appropriately challenging. Students will find certain activities easily achievable while others will me for challenging, which is very intentional. By getting students out of their comfort zone, we are shifting them towards growth and change.

 

Daily Activities for Long-term Change

All of the daily activities that we do are geared toward fostering independence and self-sufficiency. Some of these activities include: waking at sun-up, daily meditation and goal, individual and group goal setting, meal prep, and group therapy. This helps us ensure that our students are developing the skills they need to guide themselves, both now and in the future.

 

Comprehensive Clinical Programming

Providing a current, in the moment feedback loop is incredibly powerful for young adults. They are able to recognize their strengths and areas of growth and understand negative patterns. We provide the most clinical hours of any wilderness therapy program with:

– Four days of group therapy.

– Family programming specific to each client’s needs.

– Two days of individual therapy.

– Weekly equine therapy.

– Weekly adventure therapy.

– Four days of therapeutic support each week from clinical professionals.

Our goal at BlueFire Pulsar is to help each student successfully transition into adulthood.
