At-Risk Children & Teens - Educational and Therapeutic Placement Consulting

As an Independent Educational Consultant, Andrew Bryan Can Help Parents and Children Work Together to Build a Promising Future

In times of crisis, parents are often overwhelmed by a barrage of emotions. The confusion and desperation associated with having a troubled teenager or child can be extremely trying. Parents may not be aware of the options available, or may not be able to decide on their own which alternative best meets their situation and the needs of their child. Among the questions Andrew often hears: How do we know when treatment is necessary? What would be best for our child? Is an intervention needed? Should we find a residential program? Would a wilderness therapy program be a good choice, or would an emotional growth boarding school be better? With over twenty years of experience working with students and their parents, educational consultant Andrew Bryan can help families find the answers they need.
