Healing through adventure
At Moonridge Academy, we believe that the best way to help young teens reach their highest potential and greatest mental health is to make the journey fun! We provide adventure experiences every Wednesday, with activities like outdoor adventures, service projects, and school field trips. Our therapists have seen great breakthroughs in therapy when students are actively engaged in new experiences.
Moonridge Academy provides Adventure Therapy, which is a fun and exciting way to help teens reach a greater level of mental health and recovery. Our program is designed to help teens explore new things and build mastery of their emotional intelligence while also building and growing a wide range of new skills.

Who is a moonridge academy student
Moonridge Academy is a unique, intimate, and nurturing environment that specializes in helping younger adolescents heal from depression, anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, and academic challenges. Our students often come to us experimenting with high-risk behaviors or at risk for developing such behaviors.
A Moonridge student might need specialized academics. This allows for individualized attention for students who are either gifted or for those students in need of specialized education (IEP) or 504 plan supports.
