Welcome to Troubledteens.com

Finding the right boarding school for your child can be incredibly overwhelming, but you have come to right place. Whether you are looking for private boarding schools, girl boarding schools, boy boarding schools, residential treatment programs, wilderness programs, boot camps, therapeutic boarding schools, summer camps or Christian boarding schools, our proven program can help get your teen back on the right track. We specialize in helping troubled teens who struggle with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, anger, defiance, drug abuse, failure in school, laziness, and poor family relationships.

Turning Winds Academic Institute is one of the top private boarding schools in the industry. We offer a structured alternative school environment where troubled teens can grow and learn to make the changes necessary for a successful life. We feel this is a better alternative to military boarding schools or boot camps because the environment is such that the teen is able to learn to make correct choices in a healthy and positive way. Military schools or boot camps often will use more negative and demeaning approaches to force submission and obedience.
