Cherry Gulch is a highly specialized therapeutic program designed for boys ages 10-14 who are struggling with behavioral, emotional, and social challenges. It provides a structured, nurturing environment that helps young boys develop self-confidence, emotional regulation, and resilience. The program combines evidence-based therapy, experiential learning, and outdoor adventure therapy to ensure each student receives a comprehensive, individualized treatment plan. With a strong focus on mental health, executive functioning, and personal growth, Cherry Gulch offers highly trained therapists and tailored interventions for boys facing issues such as ADD/ADHD, reactive attachment disorder (RAD), anxiety, depression, autism spectrum disorder, dyslexia, processing disorders, learning differences, oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), and trauma-related challenges.
