[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I realize this is an older thread, but it's been really helpful for a list of places to research for my 16 yr old DD, who is now inpatient again for suicidal ideation after a hospitalization a year ago and a 6-month PHP/IOP. Needless to say we are so stressed at being back on the rollercoaster.

Does anyone have any recommendations for or against consultants to help find the right program?

And for those upthread who did have success at wilderness therapy programs, can you please name names if you ever come back?[/quote]

Did you just post in the Special Needs forum?  If so, I read and responded to your post.  We used what I consider a hybrid program with great success.  The program is Elk River Treatment Program.  The program is excellent and they have a very interesting and successful philosophy based on the circle and core issues.  I would never do justice to the program by trying to explain it, but it was really helpful for my son.  We continued with teletherapy with his therapist from ER after he was discharged because we couldn't find anything local that would work for him.
