Finding the Right Addiction & Mental Health Treatment Options for Teens and Young Adults with Jenney Wilder of All Kinds of Therapy

ABOUT THE EPISODE:
One of the scariest parts of having a child who needs treatment outside of the home is finding the right place, program and people for their unique needs. And Google is NOT the answer (usually.)

My guest on this week's episode made a switch from being an educational consultant placing teens and young adults in treatment programs to building a best-in-class, data-driven website that lets parents search for and compare treatment programs, consultants and resources without having to enter the land of Google.

Listen in to the conversation I had with the founder of All Kinds of Therapy, Jenney Wilder, as we talk about:

✔️ Her unique 40K foot view of the world of adolescent treatment
✔️ Why she designed All Kinds of Therapy with a comparison model
✔️ The real value of an educational consultant 
✔️ The questions parents need to ask when they’re looking for treatment for their teen or young adult child
✔️ Her view of the industry today versus the way it was 20 years ago
✔️ Why she demands so much transparency from her advertisers
✔️ The role Google should and shouldn't play in the search for out-of-home treatment
✔️ Why parents must be ok asking the hard questions
✔️ Why she believes kids in treatment during COVID-19 have fared better than those who aren’t
✔️ Where the 30-day treatment programs came from and why it doesn’t work for adolescents
✔️ and...what fills her with hope

We covered so much ground in this amazing hour, it's a must-listen if you're a parent who's navigating the vast ocean of treatment options for your teen or young adult child.
