Trinity Teen Solutions, Inc. a residential treatment center helps troubled young women find a new direction in their lives, giving them the self-reliance to follow this direction in the face of negative influences when they return home.

There are many advantages to treating young women in the magnitude of God's creation. By placing her in a safe, loving environment, the negative distractions and pressures that previously influenced her are eliminated. In addition, behavior, attentiveness, and willingness to work have a direct correlation to life's basic needs.

Through animal therapy young women begin to find the loving, gentle person they used to be.

TTS's staff are able to reach students more effectively while living, working and dealing with life's obstacles. They become more "human like" to the young women. This is a key factor in helping girls. They see the staff as approachable, empathetic, and honest. She will directly observe the treatment team as living, eating and communicating in the same environment as she is. This facilitates a connection, which enhances genuineness between the young women and the staff. The treatment team is able to step back from their traditional roles as authority figures, allowing natural consequences to provide reinforcement and punishment of appropriate, or inappropriate, behaviors.

The philosophies of Trinity Teen Solutions, Inc. is that the experiential therapy will:

• Offer the young women optimal challenge with manageable conflict
• Exercise safety at all times
• Provide young women an opportunity to exercise initiative and responsibility
• Provide young women with tasks that have integrity (i.e., is not "busy-work")
• Reinforce dignity
• Builds self esteem
• Provide the young women with a "sense of competence and success"
• Engage the young women in reflection of their experiences

There is a healing process that takes place for troubled girls when you combine animal therapy, emotional growth and experiential therapy in the beauty of nature. Young women will gain strengths, develop the importance of trust in relationships and build self esteem from the accomplishments that they personally will achieve.

The ranch environment eliminates the negative distractions and pressures that previously influenced her. In addition, behavior, attentiveness, teamwork and willingness to work have a correlation to life's basic needs such as: food, shelter, and comfort.

TTS's "Changes and Challenges" program encourages the girls participation in changing her behavior. In order for her to gain privileges she needs to work honestly on the behaviors, attitudes and issues that are forcing you to seek residential treatment.

The therapeutic interventions will grow self worth, and dignity that will allow her to do the painstaking task of looking honestly inward. Wounded youth are too vulnerable to do this interiorization, however with the emotional growth that occurs, she will be able to soften her heart and let down all the barriers that have prevented her from looking inward.

Young women are preoccupied with their appearances because of the American culture. Society is focusing on “lookism”. Everything from toothpaste to a house is advertised with some kind of sex appeal. Your daughter is bombarded with the pressure of looking “in”. Because of this preoccupation with “fitting-in” most young women are depriving their bodies of the nutrients it needs. They have poor eating habits or addictions that prevent their bodies from being healthy. We help your daughter to value herself and to find the beauty that lies within.

We will provide your daughter with pharmaceutical grade nutritional supplements to help cleanse and rebuild her cells, and a high protein, complex carbohydrate diet that will aid in the healing process. This nutritional support will decrease mood swings, help curb addictions, and provide her with long term benefits for her arrival home.
 

Due to the fast-paced, highly processed, nutrient-depleted American diets, we are seeing more and more physical and emotional problems in adolescents. A diet that is made up of highly processed foods, refined sugars, aspartame and low in protein is a recipe for disaster. This eventually will have devastating effects on one’s emotions.

Simple sugars breakdown quickly in the blood stream causing a cascade of hormonal responses. The yo-yo effect of frequent ups and downs in one’s blood sugar causes hormonal responses that affect the brain. These ups and downs then will create food cravings that are very difficult to overcome. These cravings are so powerful, they are stronger than any drugs or alcohol.

That's why at Trinity Teen Solutions, Inc. we will help her get off of the roller coaster ride. We accomplish this by:

1. High protein diet to supply her with the important amino acids necessary for neurotransmission or chemical reactions in the brain.
2. Complex carbohydrates to stabilize her blood sugar.
3. Pharmaceutical grade nutritional supplements-vitamins, minerals, amino acids and essential fatty acids. Providing the important mood stabilizing, nervous system nutrients: Magnesium, Calcium, B Complex, Essential Fatty acids and much more.
