Therapeutic Boarding School

A Christ-Centered Therapeutic Boarding School

Shepherd’s Hill Academy is unashamedly 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 decisions.

Getting Started on the Right Foot — Our Wilderness Program

The early part of enrollment at Shepherd’s Hill Academy is a wilderness program, carefully planned to remove distractions, build trust and encourage teamwork. Being without technology and other conveniences gives teens an opportunity to contemplate deeper issues of life. The necessity of collaborating to meet simple daily needs demands coping and teamwork strategies, 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 more appropriately relate to authority and to others.

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

This phase gets them ready to transition into society as privileges and personal freedoms are restored. Careful instruction of parents in our retreats also happens during this period in readiness for the teen’s going 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, staffed with Georgia certified instructors. We desire students to continue their studies in college, so we incorporate test prep for the SAT and ACT as part of our regular curriculum.
