Our licensed clinical therapists provide individual and group therapy to students every week, and parents and legal guardians can expect weekly phone calls with
progress updates.
Some of the issues we see are shame, fear and feelings of isolation. These issues can lead to educational struggles, lack of boundaries, poor relationships and diminished self respect.
When students first come to New Horizons for Young Women, they frequently mirror the mal-adaptive behaviors they've displayed in the home, at school, or with family and friends. Supportive therapists and staff help each young woman reflect on her behavior and begin to integrate healthy coping responses.
Communication
New Horizons for Young Women offers clinical tools the girls can use long after they've left New Horizons, and we believe one key to a successful life is effective communication.
That's why New Horizons therapists will give you — parents and legal guardians — ongoing written assignments that correlate with your daughters'. Through journal entries, letter writing and reading assignments, you and your daughter can gain the essential tools needed for effective, respectful communication.

New Horizons For Young Women uses a Bio-Psycho- Social Model with concentration on the family, the individual and the socio- cultural context.
Thus, New Horizons assesses the whole person instead of focusing on one area that may only be part of the issue.
New Horizons For Young Women uses Individual Therapy, Family Therapy, Psycho-Education, Group Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Techniques and Experiential Education that is solution- focused.
Our clinical tools are geared to address young women's feelings as well as biological issues that may be causing negative behaviors.
