Here are the basics of how our program works.
Peak House is a voluntary, ten-week, live-in, treatment program for youth ages 13-18 years old (inclusive) experiencing problems with drugs, including alcohol. We are located in a large house in a residential neighbourhood in Vancouver. Our program is a suitable treatment option for youth with the willingness to get back on track with their lives. We welcome clients from all walks of life, cultural backgrounds, sexual orientations, genders and gender expressions. Treatment
During the first two weeks in the program, the Intake and Assessment Counsellor works closely with youth to help orient them and assess treatment readiness. During this time staff and residents collaborate to determine program suitability and willingness to participate in the remaining eight weeks of the program. After the assessment phase, a therapeutic plan is developed to outline treatment goals and a welcoming ceremony is held. After the first two weeks, if you and our staff decide that youth are ready to enter the treatment portion of the program, they will move into the treatment phase. Clients will set daily and weekly goals, track their accomplishments, have individual sessions with a Clinical Counsellor, and participate in group work and activities. The program balances therapeutic work with fun activities and exercise. Many past residents have commented that while at Peak House, they re-learned how much fun they can have without drugs and alcohol. Peak House’s program is pretty structured — our schedule includes individual and group counselling, education, fitness, holistic wellness practices, arts and music, guest speakers, and community outings. Reach out, we want to help you.
Peak House has been internationally recognized for utilizing a unique, collaborative, youth-driven, community-based model of care. The roots of this approach are grounded in promoting change that lasts over time and social justice-informed approaches to therapy and counselling. The community at Peak House honours the wisdom and expertise that young persons and families possess and through this wisdom, the Peak House program has continued to grow and evolve.
