What is a Therapeutic Educational Consultant?

A therapeutic educational consultant provides individuals and families with curated, well-matched therapeutic (and academic) options for emotional, behavioral, academic and/or relational issues. Consultants travel frequently to ensure they maintain a real-time, firsthand understanding of school & program components.  Reputable therapeutic consultants are independent, meaning they do not accept or receive referral fees or any compensation from programs or schools for recommending.

When I get a call from a parent of a young adult who is anxious, depressed and generally “stuck” … and their worried about their ability to launch independently, I may recommend wilderness therapy.
