Heart Transformation is a resort-style campus providing Christian counseling, lake adventures, and a waterpark for adolescents and their families. They have created a unique therapy called Heart Transformation Therapy (HTT). HTT is a relationship-based modality designed to assist all types of caregivers including behavioral health professionals, ministers, mentors, parents, spouses, relatives, friends, and others. HTT is biblical based, yet practical and non religious. HTT differs from behavior modification in that it treats the heart over the behavior. Treatment can include 1-on-1 counseling, family counseling,
group therapy, life skills, and meditation and mindfulness. The program gives young adults with the tools needed to overcome challenges and provides Life Specialists that guide the parents from being ill-equipped to confident.
