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

Shepherd’s Hill Academy, located in northeast Georgia, is a hybrid between a therapeutic wilderness program and a boarding school with counseling. Teens arrive at Shepherd’s Hill Academy from all across the nation, including from Media, Pennsylvania. Though it is a distance for some, parents find it valuable for their teenager to experience a new environment separate from their local peer group.

A Christ-Centered Therapeutic Boarding School

Shepherd’s Hill Academy is unapologetically Christ-centered, believing that transformation 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 choices.

Getting Started on the Right Foot — Our Wilderness Program

The first phase of enrollment at Shepherd’s Hill Academy is a wilderness program, designed to get rid of distractions, build trust and encourage teamwork. Being without technology and other conveniences leaves time to contemplate more meaningful issues of life. The necessity of cooperating to meet simple daily needs involves coping and teamwork skills, compelling teens to consider how their contribution impacts 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 Media, Pennsylvania, We Offer a Well-Rounded Therapeutic Program and Accredited School

Once teens consistently make responsible choices and take ownership of their development, they shift to the residential program and live in a home on campus. This next step gets them ready to transition into society as privileges and individual freedoms are restored. Careful instruction of parents in our retreats also occurs during this phase in readiness for the teen’s going home.

All throughout 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 encourage students to attend college, so we include test prep for the SAT and ACT as part of our regular curriculum.
