Legacy Treatment Center draws from the field of Adventure Therapy to complement the healing power of Nature-based Therapy. Traditional Nature-based Therapy is characterized by immersion in the wild with caring guides, unavoidable successes, and deliberate time for contemplation. Integrating Adventure Therapy into this tradition encourages clients to invest in their own treatment and helps them learn to have fun in a healthy way.

The natural world routinely presents seemingly insurmountable challenges. The power of the lessons learned in overcoming these challenges is a fundamental component of our approach to treatment. We deliberately create opportunities that may appear difficult or uncomfortable, and then support and empower our clients in the achievement of success. Then we carefully process the experience in order to maximize our clients’ growth. Successive cycles of facing and overcoming obstacles develops self-efficacy and resiliency traits, and enhances confidence in overcoming any of life’s challenges.
