White River Academy Announces Monthly Webinar Series
Delta, UT (PRWEB) August 17, 2014 -- White River Academy boarding school now features monthly webinar installments, offering a litany of seminars from guest speakers. The webinars will be part of a CEU event featuring healthcare professionals speaking on various mental and behavioral health issues, open to both professionals and parents.
The inaugural webinar will feature clinical psychologist Dr. Daniel Sanderson presenting his vacation treatment model, an out-of-the-box approach to treating teen problem behaviors, educating both therapists and parents on effective strategies for disrupting the adolescent’s “developmental vacation” contributing to their issues.
“White River is one of the few programs that actually focuses on the skills and paradigm shifts it takes for a boy to become a man,” said Robin Reber, Admissions Director and Outreach Specialist at White River Academy.
“There is a peaceful calm at White River. There is strength, order, dignity, respect, purpose, insight and hope. These young men come from good families who earnestly desire a better path for their sons and entrust their children with us. That is a trust we protect and cherish,” said Reber.
