Evoke Therapy Programs
Evoke Therapy Programs offers life-changing experiences for teens, young adults, parents, and families. Evoke specializes in Wilderness Therapy, a highly effective and research-proven approach for treating teens and young adults, with extensive family support. Evoke's skilled Master's and Ph.D. level therapists and caring support staff guide participants and their families on a transformative journey back to health, wholeness, and a happier life. At Evoke, we believe in the power of nature and an individual’s inherent connection to it. The outdoors provides the right environment for unforeseen learning and a reclamation of self. Evoke Therapy Programs also offers therapeutic Intensives, experiences that enrich lives and improve relationships through education, counseling, psychodrama, and outdoor therapy. We conduct both Online (2.5 day) and In-person (4 day) Intensives for individuals, as well as customized Intensives for couples and families. Evoke Intensives’ expert therapists help participants journey through emotional barriers that are affecting current relationships and wellbeing to create lasting change and growth. Additionally, Evoke Therapy Programs provides Pursuits trips for teens, young adults, and families. Pursuits are multi-day, customized adventure trips that can include mountaineering, rock-climbing, canyoneering, mountain biking, and much more. They can be based in the United States or abroad. Pursuits are for any individual or family looking for life-long and meaningful memories, a healthy-sober adventure, or simply a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Evoke's philosophy is based on a deep respect for our participants; our expertise is not in providing advice, but creating an experience that evokes a self-discovery of an enduring source of truth—themselves.
