The Road Home: A Guide for Parents with Teens or Young Adults Returning from Treatment

By Ruben Jimenez

Finally, there's a guide--written for parents, not just clinicians--describing the unique challenges families face when welcoming home a teenager or young adult from therapeutic treatment. Whether your child is returning home from a wilderness therapy program, a therapeutic boarding school, or a drug and alcohol treatment center, you're likely feeling a swirl of emotions: fear, anxiety, guilt, stress...but also love, hope, and a sense of possibility. The Road Home will provide you with the practical tools, insights, and strategies you'll need to help your child translate the gains made in treatment to the real world, while managing your own emotional health and well-being.
