Find Healing in the Wilderness
At Legacy Treatment Center, we believe in the healing power of nature. Our program uses evidence-based, clinical treatment complemented by intentional outdoor experience
Being connected to nature offers many mental health benefits including reduced anxiety, improved focus, reduced depression, increased physical activity, and the ability to practice mindfulness and as a result, decrease stress. Our clients are taught to take advantage of all of these benefits. With the help of our trained staff and clinical team, clients at Legacy practice mindfulness techniques, embrace the beauty of the natural terrain, and are able to engage safely in the landscapes around them.
While out in the field, our clients are free from the over-stimulation of the modern world including technology, work, school, and social stressors, which gives them the space and time to engage more fully in treatment.
We have seen many of our alumni choose to maintain a connection with the wilderness and the outdoors after graduating from Legacy, some even returning to work as field guides themselves. It is our experience that the skills and the ability to thrive in the outdoors they develop at Legacy will enable our clients to continue to enhance their lives with the healing power of the wilderness for many years.
