Discovery Ranch is life changing and life saving! Our teenage daughter had been struggling for years with increasingly deeper levels of depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation and cutting. Despite years in therapy, she was withdrawn, unable to function in school and couldn't keep a friend. She had been hospitalized and had attended wilderness therapy, both of which were helpful, but she could not seem to stay on track. We were desperate and knew she needed more. We are now two weeks away from our daughter's graduation from DRS and are thrilled to say that our bright, talented, capable daughter is back! She is excited for her future and believes in herself, something we haven't seen since elementary school. She credits the staff and the program for steadily guiding her from phase to phase, building her confidence and helping her heal. She adores her therapist, is close with much of the staff, and has made friends. She can't wait to start back in school this fall and once again to be a great student! As parents, we have felt included every step along the way. Parent seminars have been invaluable in helping us all heal and move forward. I have enjoyed meeting other families and seeing the growth in all of the girls over the months, not only my own. The facilities are beautiful, the equine, performing arts, & adventure therapies add such fun diversity, and my girl has loved her calves. We have watched as our daughter has learned so much about herself, her struggles, and how to self-regulate. We will forever be grateful for the time our daughter has spent at Discovery Ranch, and can't wait to see what her future holds!
