Individual therapy is provided by the primary therapist, and generally consists of 90-120 minutes of therapy per week, which may take place in one session or be split into two sessions. The therapist works together with the student and her parents to determine the goals and objectives for the therapeutic experience, and individual therapy focuses largely on working toward those goals. One key that we have found to enrich this experience is a strong therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the student as well as with the parents. Our therapists spend time outside of therapy within our community, getting to know the students and building relationships that allow for deeper, more powerful work in therapy.
Family therapy is also provided by the primary therapist, and generally consists of one 60-90 minute session per week. This therapy generally takes place over the phone or through video conferencing, with live sessions at least every 8 weeks during our on-campus Parent Days. Like individual sessions, family therapy is focused specifically on working toward the goals that each family has for their relationships with each other and their progress together as a family unit.
At La Europa, we believe in utilizing a variety of therapeutic techniques in order to help students shift emotionally, behaviorally, and in their relationships. On the group level, students have the opportunity to participate in groups, recreational therapy, and art and dance groups. On an individual level, they may also have the opportunity to participate in alternative therapies as well. These include Sand-tray therapy, conducted by the Recreational therapist, and Processing, conducted by certified facilitators. (Click on the titles for more information about these therapies.) |
