"Our son was failing at school, he was affected by ADHD, and deeply troubled as a teenager trying to fit in with his peers. We immediately saw what West Ridge Academy does for youth and families. Our son received help, counseling, and even went to school during his stay. The combination of clinical counseling programs and spiritual help is very powerful. They perform miracles every day."

“Things are better than they were when I was a teenager. I was suicidal and my parents recognized that I needed help.  West Ridge Academy's counseling programs inspired me to realize that it wasn't 'me against the world.'  My youth was a very dark and troubled timewhere I just wanted to get hit by a bus. I took advantage of the schooling and other benefits of their youth counseling.  Now I'm hopeful, inspired, and want to have a family of my own.”
