Along with our research supported adventure therapy programs we provide fully individualised expeditions for children, adolescents, families and adults. We design these camps for those who may have missed one of our programs or do not fit the appropriate criteria for our 14-day expedition. Below we have outlined some of the highlights and anticipated outcomes for those participating in True North’s individualised programs. 

If you are interested in scheduling an individualised adventure therapy program with True North Expeditions please contact our Admissions Team to prepare for your program. Our programs run for a minimum of five days and are customisable up to a maximum of 21 days. Our team will need a minimum of ten days to prepare for this program.

Five-Day Cost: $2,395.00 
Additional Days: $475.00 per Day

Staffing

Each program is led by a clinical practitioner, such as a masters level social worker or psychologist and assisted by an outdoor adventure professional. These leaders provide an engaging experience adventuring through the bush while working to build insight into the issues we can improve on. True North values the relationship built between staff and participants and this relationship’s importance to the change process. Our focus is on providing a compassionate environment in order to foster person growth. 

Expected Outcomes

Our programs are founded on evidence-base practices and ongoing program evaluation. Our 2014 Program Evaluation found that both adolescents and parents valued our services with over 95% stating that they would willingly attend the experience again. Over the course of an individualised program, our staff will work to reduce problem behaviours through increasing self-awareness, self-esteem and self-worth. Our study showed that our participants were able to positively cope with the stressors and challenges at home while improving their relationships.
