Wilderness Therapy & Residential Treatment Center Journey

This podcast episode is an announcement for a new podcast, called Winning Parenting. It is focused on all aspects of parenting and leverages the training and experience I have as a parent coach. It provides insights and approaches for parenting beyond children in programs.

In this episode, we speak to Susie McDaniel, Executive Director of LearningRx.  LearningRx offers brain training programs for kids, teens, adults, and students who are having learning difficulties!

With brain training, you or your child can improve core learning and thinking skills, including attention span, memory, and thinking speed. They also offer programs that focus on specific brain training goals, like improved reading skills, or cognitive training for brain injuries.

During our discussion, we covered the following topics:

• Background
• Whom do you serve
• Types of programs
• Results achieved/difference from other programs
• Process to engage
• Locations
• Costs
• Contact info

Today, we chat with Jeremy Whitworth. Trails Carolina is a very unique program. Based outside of Asheville, NC, this program caters to 10-17 year-olds and supports their families as well.  It has an academic, wilderness and campus focus.  In addition, they have completed an objective study with an outside party about the effectiveness of their program.  The. results are impressive and also indicative of the success of the programs in general, not just with Trails Carolina.  Tune in and enjoy!
