Like never before, young adults are being pulled by a material lifestyle
that temporarily provides excitement, confidence, and success.
Internet dating, drug use, and video games, among other activities,
has suddenly taken center stage, despite the painful consequences that
often follow this lifestyle - failing grades, family conflicts, worsening
states of depression and anxiety. The idea of studying, working hard, and
developing genuine relationships now has difficulty competing in this brave
new world. At Dragonfly, we're ready to help you turn things around.
While it will take effort, the gains can be invaluable for you and your family.
Understanding Who You Are
Unlike other wilderness programs that may last several months,
our program is limited to 21 days. We take this time seriously.
Each Dragonfly participant receives a full testing battery prior
to their first quest. We believe this first step is invaluable
for better understanding the participant and matching individual
treatment with the participant's primary strengths and challenges.
In addition, the psychological report can be invaluable for extending
the gains experienced at Dragonfly to future settings.
The full testing battery includes:
Intelligence and achievement aptitudes,
Personality assessments,
Behavioral and emotional measures,
Drug and alcohol screening,
Vocational interests and abilities
In addition to testing, the primary psychologist will
conduct an informal interview with the participant
and their family (as appropriate) prior to enrollment,
in order to better understand their life history, goals, and needs.
