Manage your Screen. Change Your Future.
Innovative care begins with brilliant, dedicated, and experienced people. And we’re not talking about our staff here (although they are brilliant too.) We’re talking about the like minded people who join us for an intensive screen free experience.
Is it tough? It can be. Is it difficult? It most certainly is. But the people who abandon their devices for a period of time, build a plan for sustainable digital use, and go out and live their plans. Well, they’re just absolutely astounding.
And we get the privilege of connecting, and witnessing change every day. Ordinary people, living extraordinary lives-taking their digital dependence, and funneling it in life enriching ways. Perhaps that’s why our outcomes are so good. Because the people who join us, well, they are just that good too. They just need a little nudge, and mentors who care.
And that’s where we come in. We offer world-class video game addiction treatment, in addition to our Internet gaming disorder treatment and support for mental health conditions.
