ThreePeaks Ascent

ThreePeaks Ascent is a short-term residential treatment program for teens aged 12-17, located in the natural landscapes of Utah. Accredited by The Joint Commission, ThreePeaks specializes in helping adolescents facing mental, emotional, and behavioral struggles including anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and technology addiction. Their nature-immersed approach combines traditional therapeutic practices with the transformative power of wilderness therapy, creating an environment free from everyday distractions where teens can heal and develop essential coping skills.

The program spans 8-12 weeks and follows a three-stage model: Assessment & Stabilization, Engage & Empower, and Reconnect & Reintegrate. Research indicates that accurate mental health assessments at ThreePeaks can lead to a 20% reduction in treatment days. By discharge, 90% of teens are actively engaged in treatment, with most maintaining their progress six months later. ThreePeaks Ascent has made wilderness therapy more accessible through insurance-based options, providing a unique blend of experiential and evidence-based therapies that help teens disrupt unhealthy patterns and build lasting resilience.
