In this Former Participant Series, Joanna interviews previously troubled teens and young adults who underwent a treatment program. On today’s episode, Joanna welcomes “Steven”. As a teen, Steven was caught up in substance abuse, joyriding, cutting school, and severe defiance at home. At a loss, his parents sent him to a wilderness therapy program which impacted the trajectory of his future. 

NOTE: The podcasts in this series can include sensitive subjects such as suicide, self-harm, substance abuse, hospitalizations, psychotic episodes, and other traumatic experiences which include parts of the treatment journey. No topic is off limits and not all stories are positive but they are real, raw, and transparent.
