Shattering The Youth Treatment Mold And Getting Real About Drugs, Alcohol and Mental Health, with Wes Robins & Zac Sweat of Eternal Strength
ABOUT THE EPISODE:
Wes Robins and Zac Sweat are insanely passionate about helping young people heal and have opened a therapeutic youth center outside of Atlanta, GA to do just that. Eternal Strength Therapeutic Youth Center is an outpatient program - without a program - where each client is met with a tailor-made set of activities, therapies, and healing methods that work best for them and their family. And it might not look anything like 'treatment' has in the past.
In this episode, you'll learn what led Wes and Zac to open their unique space, why they don't advertise or offer structured programs, why they blew up the 4,6,12 or whatever week treatment program, and how they offer young people a radical pilgrimage of growth using creativity, physical and mental tools.
We talked about:
- what's lacking today in the world of youth treatment,
- how parents can help improve the treatment process,
- when you may want to consider out-of-home treatment,
- how parents can grapple with the real danger of fentanyl,
- a poem that makes everyone cry,
- words of wisdom for parents who are currently in crisis,
- the importance of boundaries, and lots more.
Strap on your seatbelt, this is a real, raw, and heartfelt conversation.
