The Best Tools of Wilderness Programs and Therapeutic Boarding Schools On Our Georgia Campus

Shepherd’s Hill Academy, located in northeast Georgia, combines the best aspects of a therapeutic wilderness program and a boarding school with counseling. Teens arrive at Shepherd’s Hill Academy from all across the country, including from Bensalem, Pennsylvania.

A Christ-Centered Therapeutic Boarding School

Shepherd’s Hill Academy is unashamedly Christ-centered, believing that a change of heart due to a relationship with Jesus is the only true and lasting change. We provide a first-rate education, person-to-person mentoring and counseling, equine therapy, and teamwork exercises to help teens build character and learn to make responsible choices.

Getting Started on the Right Foot — Our Wilderness Program

The first phase of enrollment at Shepherd’s Hill Academy is a wilderness program, carefully planned to remove distractions, build trust and teach teamwork. Removing electricity and other conveniences leaves time to contemplate more meaningful issues of life. The necessity of working together to meet simple daily needs demands coping and teamwork strategies, compelling teens to consider their obligation to others. As they watch staff and leaders who submit to God as the true Authority, they find a reference point for themselves and can better relate to authority and to others.

For Parents Seeking a Therapeutic Boarding School in Bensalem, Pennsylvania, We Offer a Well-Rounded Therapeutic Program and Accredited School

Once teens consistently make responsible choices and take ownership of their growth, they transfer to the residential program and move to a home on campus. This phase gets them ready to transition into society as privileges and personal liberties are restored. Careful training of parents in our retreats also happens during this step in readiness for the teen’s going home.

During both phases of the program, the teens receive regular counseling and attend our on-campus, fully accredited junior and senior high school, staffed with Georgia certified instructors. We encourage students to continue their studies in college, so we incorporate test prep for the SAT and ACT as part of our daily curriculum.
