Therapeutic Boarding School

A Christ-Centered Therapeutic Boarding School

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

Getting Started on the Right Foot — Our Wilderness Program

The first phase of a stay at Shepherd’s Hill Academy is a wilderness program, intended to remove distractions, build trust and encourage teamwork. Living without electronics and other conveniences leaves time to contemplate more meaningful issues of life. The necessity of collaborating to meet basic daily needs demands coping and teamwork skills, pushing teens to consider their obligation to others. As they observe staff and leaders who submit to God as the true Authority, they learn a reference point for themselves and can better relate to authority and to others.

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

This next step prepares them to transition into society as privileges and personal liberties are restored. Careful instruction of parents in our retreats also occurs during this step in preparation for the teen’s return home.

During both phases of the program, the teens receive regular counseling and are enrolled in our on-campus, fully accredited junior and senior high school, taught by Georgia certified teachers. We desire students to go on to college, so we incorporate test prep for the SAT and ACT as part of our daily curriculum.
