WildAndrogynous:

--- Quote from: "psy" ---OK.  Nevermind.  You might actually be the genuine deal. We'll see.  No program rep would dare admit there was drug usage going on at their campus.  No fences and kids in the open according to Oscar is also a good sign, I admit...  Though even that is not proof of a good program and it's just your word at this point.

Does summit have secret seminars (marathon type LGAT seminars)?  If you've ever heard of LifeSpring or est you'll know what i'm talking about.

How confrontational are the group therapy sessions?

Is a licensed, qualified, therapist present?  Can I check into this and verify their licenses?

There were no secret seminars or anything remotely like that.

I've never been to one of the group therapy sessions, as none of the established ones dealt with my particular issues. From what I've heard from the attendees, they tend to be more boring than anything else.

As far as I know, every therapist/social worker working there has the proper qualifications. I could message you the names of some of these people if you wish to investigate this on your own.

So was it your choice to go to Summit?

My dad threatened to kick me out if I didn't get involved with some school, and due to certain events in my past, I was supremely ill-equipped for education in a less specialized setting. An administrator at the previous school I was enrolled in recommended it along with a handful of other places.

--- Quote from: "WildAndrogynous" ---I'm not claiming Summit is fantastic by any stretch of the imagination; I could list the multitude of fucked-up things about the place for you too.

What might some of those things be?
