ARCH Academy – Kingston Springs

My son was at ARCH Academy for 4 1/2 months and his, and our, experiences were great! ARCH changed all of our lives and helped our son realize how much he wants to live a sober life. The transition in him was amazing… and no doubt saved his life. The staff at ARCH was loving, kind and knowledgeable while also being firm when needed and holding the boys accountable to themselves and others. They provided many types of therapies and experiences in addition to the 12 step work. They also provide online options for school and have a dedicated education coordinator. Our son also greatly benefited from the EMDR treatment for trauma. Lastly, they provided resources and education for the parents and families so that they can understand what their son is going through and be better prepared to support them when they come home. They were truly a blessing to our son and our family and we are very grateful to everyone at ARCH! We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for residential care for substance abuse in adolescent boys.

Highly recommend ARCH to any family who wants to find their son a safe place to get sober and find recovery!

I was grateful to have ARCH Academy as a resource for a patient who needed a higher level of care and was blown away by how professional, communicative, and dedicated the staff was to his needs. I would not hesitate to… use ARCH Academy as THE option for adolescents who are struggling with addiction.

I have been meaning to write this review for a long time. Our son spent 4 ½ months at ARCH Academy from June 2022 to November 2022. It changed his life! He learned new coping strategies and a great deal about himself.… He came home a new person! All of the staff really seem to care about the boys. They hold them accountable in a loving way. They offer a wide variety of programs including music therapy, art therapy, equine therapy, and 12 step work. In addition, they have an accredited school so that students can catch up or keep up with school. They offer family therapy that was crucial for us. As part of that therapy, they worked with us to prepare for his homecoming and continued recovery. Our son came home committed to his recovery. He has been participating in his 12 step program and we, his parents, participate in our own. We are so grateful to ARCH Academy for all it did to help our son and to help us build a new loving, healthy relationship with him.

I'm an alumni of Arch academy, spent 4 months there working on myself. Excellent, safe environment. If your son is willing to listen this place will save their life. Staff are very caring and invested in the success of… adolescents in their care.
