A unique mental health community, we provide a safe and nurturing place to recover. Through our holistic and integrated program, clients have the opportunity to:

• solidify an effective medication strategy
• achieve clarity about their identity
• learn strategies to regulate emotions
• practice independent living skills
• set goals for work and relationships
• strengthen communication skills
• explore healthy leisure activities
• improve physical wellness and nutrition

While each of our clients determines his or her own recovery goals, our overarching goal for all clients is that they leave Skyland Trail equipped to live in the world.

We believe families (including relations, spouses, partners, and other important friends) are integral to our clients' recovery process. We also know from experience that families need to recover too. Mental illness places an incredible strain on families and relationships. We offer many opportunities for families to not only support their loved one's recovery, but to work toward the healing and recovery of the family system as well.

As part of our unique, holistic approach to recovery, we offer many valuable services and programs for our families, including:

• Family Orientation
• Dedicated staff to serve as liaison with families
• open dialogue with treatment team (with client's permission)
• weekly family support group
• client-focused family sessions with counselor
• family-focused counseling sessions with family therapist
