Telos has been instrumental in helping our son and healing our family.
If you are reading these reviews, you are likely in the midst of making a very difficult decision for your son and your family. I want to encourage you that there is a program full of people who care and who work very hard to build a relationship with your son so that they can come along side him in whatever he is struggling with to help navigate him through and ultimately out of those struggles.
Here are my top 3 favorite things about Telos -
1. Telos has a culture of excellence. It is apparent from the leadership all the way down the chain of command. Leadership is highly involved in the daily lives of the boys. They got to know my son and built a positive relationship with him. They are open to feedback and are constantly working to provide the highest level of care and customer service.
2. Therapy - Our therapist (Aaron) was a perfect fit for our son and our family. He is an expert in his field with many years of experience. It was apparent from the very beginning that he understood our son, his struggles, and most importantly, how to help him. I always felt very informed about all that was happening during my son's treatment. And as a parent who has entrusted the care of my child to others, I very much appreciated this. He did not shy away from difficult topics and was always open and honest with us. When my son began to regress after several months into treatment, the entire team came together to intervene and come up with new strategies to help him. They did not give up on him and for that I am forever grateful.
3. Family Days - Telos believes in and values the entire family. They encourage and expect a high level of family involvement. We have 2 younger kids who missed their brother terribly and didn't understand all that was going on when he left. Family Days offered my kids the opportunity to spend quality time together and to reunite with their brother and see that he is okay. There are so many fun activities planned during Family Days, we loved them all. They also offer parent support groups, small group training sessions, and family therapy. It was always a highlight for our family and one of the main reasons why we chose Telos.
I hope this helps anyone trying to make such a difficult decision. Our son is doing so well and we have a relationship with him that I treasure.
Thank you Telos!
