H.O.M.E.

Recognizing the survival mode in which your family has been living, experiencing the overwhelm of grief and loss, accepting your own strengths and struggles, and feeling desperate for solutions are just a few heart-wrenching steps you may experience with an adolescent or young adult in out-of-home mental and behavioral health treatment. If you are on this path, you might feel isolated and confused as you wade through the waters of the treatment process with your family. H.O.M.E. offers insight into the journey of wilderness therapy and other treatment experiences. This book encourages you to be gentle with yourself and your family through the treatment process and empowers you to create a successful plan by predicting unexpected situations when bringing a child home from treatment. H.O.M.E., written by two psychotherapists and former wilderness therapists who have served as parent coaches for over a decade, is an outstanding companion book for you while on this journey. After over 20 years of being asked by thousands of parents to put their wisdom in writing, Jen and Hilary collate their tips and tools and offer the H.O.M.E. continuum as a model to enable you to sustain your personal growth through situational self-assessment. H.O.M.E. is a reminder that now is the best time to make changes that can secure your family's health for the future.
