Before our daughter was at Clearview Horizon Girls Academy, we tried getting her help from many different places. Nothing was working. One very late night I couldn’t sleep, and was desperately trying to find anything, something. I happened to find Clearview Horizon Girls Academy andwas immediately drawn in by passion and pursuit that Clearview was not just about your daughter, it was getting the whole family involved for restorative change. At the time I had no idea what that meant or how much hard work would be involved with us parents, but I can sure tell you it is worth every ounce of pain and struggle. Our daughter has been there about 4-5 months now and it is not a race. Its slow, and you may not see instant changes. There is lots of relearning on our daughter’s side and our side as parents. There is no such thing as an easy fix. I can tell you that the staff there are incredibly supportive, and really love these girls. Mike does amazing work with these girls not only through horse therapy, but how he is able to communicate ideas, and life lessons in ways I can only wish to obtain one day with our daughter. Some days are good days in family therapy, and some are very frustrating and feel as though nothing is getting accomplished. That’s ok, The Clearview process is caring, patient, and makes a difference. It’s a long way to go for her and us, but our hard work ( GRIT ) and trusting the process will be so rewarding. It already has made huge impacts on my wife and I, who thought we knew what being a parent was…boy how much our mindset has changed.
