New hope. New help. No secrets. Oxbow Academy offers all of that to families seeking treatment for children with sexual dependencies.

Oxbow Academy is a residential treatment center that focuses exclusively on teen boys struggling with sex-related behaviors. The facility opened in late January, 2007 and serves boys ranging in age from 13 to 17. The center is licensed for up to 24 boys.

Located in rural Wales, Utah, Oxbow combines intensive therapy with academic course work. It offers a boarding school setting that is focused on early intervention.

Oxbow's highly specialized environment is designed exclusively for teens with sexual dependency issues. Oxbow students are surrounded by peers who are struggling with similar problems. This provides a supportive, understanding culture.

Shawn Brooks, Executive Director of Oxbow Academy, says the program fills a unique niche. "Our experience with other programs has taught us early intervention is critical to successfully treating these boys. Yet it's almost impossible to find a program that treats teens. Oxbow focuses exclusively on sexual dependencies while offering a holistic therapeutic and educational approach."

Counselors, educators and staff create a unique environment that helps students disclose their behaviors, assume responsibility and begin healing. They are specifically trained to spot behaviors that may be overlooked or minimized in other therapeutic settings. State of the art security is combined with a home-like setting where students study, work and play.

Oxbow provides experiential, or "real time," therapy in the form of equine programs, outdoor activities and daily living tasks. In addition to experiential therapy and group therapy, students receive a minimum of seven hours of weekly counseling sessions. Parents and family members also participate in weekly therapy sessions with their child's counselor via telephone.

Along with therapeutic activities, Oxbow students complete an academic core curriculum that includes English, history, math and science.

Oxbow's management team brings more than two decades of experience helping troubled youth. Six of those years were spent specializing in the treatment of sexual misconduct. The school operates as a campus of Discovery Academy, noted for its excellence as a therapeutic boarding school. Oxbow is licensed by the State of Utah and meets or exceeds state therapeutic and academic requirements.

The Oxbow model is designed to bring boys and their families from fear and hiding to disclosure, treatment, and hope. For more information on Oxbow Academy visit our website at www.oxbowacademy.net.

I read this, and I think, "Please God, let it be satire."

But it never is.

:(

There are no words. Put an end to this place.

Does Utah actually do anything when you inform them of really glaring things like that?

What the fuck? Okay, I had an alcohol dependency for years, had to give it up.  I had a cigarette dependency for years, had to give it up.  Now I'm old, and I'll be damned if any academy of Christian assholes is going to take away my sexual dependency.  I'll hump until the End of Days, fish-people.
