Willow Creek School is an accredited, year-round, private
residential treatment center, located at the foot of the Wasatch
Mountains in Provo, Utah. They focus on the mental, emotional
and physical health and well-being of young men and women,
ages 14-18, who need the life skills, education and emotional
growth necessary to become responsible and self-sufficient
adults. Appropriate candidates include young men and women
that have the capability to function normally but are manifesting
difficulties in behavior, learning, emotional or physical
attachment and have been unresponsive to previous in-or out-patient
counseling or substance abuse programs.
With more than 40 years combined experience in adolescent
residential treatment care, healthcare facility operations
and education, Steve Nielsen, Admissions Director, says the
staff strives to help students refocus their misdirected lives,
find meaning in the future and prepare to become responsible
adults. He added that Willow Creek is "led by an exceptional
group of professional educators, licensed therapists, counselors
and staff members who have devoted their lives to helping
young people grow intellectually and emotionally. Our staff
is specially trained to work with troubled young men and women,
and our faculty sets healthy boundaries, builds relationships,
teaches by example and holds students accountable for their
actions. This is the essential ingredient behind the success
of Willow Creek School."
Willow Creek School explains its philosophy as one of specialized
and customized treatment modalities via clinical assistance
and structured care to assist each young man and woman to
achieve a higher level of personal accomplishment, understanding,
healing and acceptance in life. In parallel, focus is placed
in preparing students to provide for themselves and contribute
as a productive member of their family and the community with
focused academic preparation for entrance into a college or
university setting, or vocational skill acquisition, to become
self-sufficient and responsible adults.
