Our child and adolescent therapists will work collaboratively with campers to develop an individualized plan specifically tailored to meet their individual camp goals. Campers will face their fears through fun, adventure-based activities like the zip line, trapeze, and hiking. Therapists will take a compassionate, skills building approach to the weekend, incorporating evidence-based treatment interventions (i.e., cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure and response prevention (ERP), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)).

One in eight children are affected by anxiety disorders; however, it is estimated that 80% of children with diagnosable anxiety disorders are not receiving treatment. Research shows that kids and teens with untreated OCD and anxiety face a higher risk of suicide, substance abuse, poor academic performance, and social isolation. The good news is OCD and anxiety are very treatable. Cognitive behavioral therapy is supported by decades of research. Whether your family has an established relationship with a trusted anxiety specialist or you are just starting out on your journey toward freedom, Camp Courage exists to provide kids and teens with a fun, supportive atmosphere to challenge anxiety alongside a supportive team of peers and clinicians.
