Enrolling a child in treatment at Oxbow is, in a way, enrolling parents too. Treatment is most successful when parents are highly involved in and supportive of the therapeutic process. The goal is not only helping the student become whole but healing the family as well.

We strongly urge parents to help their sons accept responsibility for their behaviors and acknowledge the need for treatment. Students demonstrate commitment as they begin following their treatment plans, working on their unique problems in each phase. Families demonstrate their commitment by answering questions about their students honestly and openly during the assessment phase, by participating in weekly family therapy sessions, and by completing therapy assignments that correlate with their students’ therapy work.

If you would prefer to discuss your situation with a counselor, we invite you to call Erin Nester, our admissions counselor, at (435) 469-0683.
