Video Game Addiction Help for New York Teens and Young Adults
New York families seek our video game rehab center because of our unique ability to adapt to the academic curriculum for New York campers. Our video game addiction rehab helps gamers develop the internal drive and motivation to focus on academics- not the latest video game.
Lack of self-regulation is the common denominator that affects a student’s preoccupation with video games and a lack of focus on everything else: school, friends, chores, reading, and so on. At Summerland Camps for Video Game Addiction, developing self-regulation skills is what we do.
Using a harm reduction approach, Summerland Camps for Video Game Addiction campers become enlightened as to the habit-forming qualities of video games and social media, in addition to how exposure to different types of online media can change your perceptions of violence or gender roles. Our video game rehab uses a harm reduction approach because it’s not realistic to give up computers and smartphones.
Under a harm reduction approach, teens and young adults learn how to limit their time devoted to video games, and to make better choices about how they are using screens. Many times campers are unaware of the harm they are causing by playing endless hours of video games. Our structured video game rehab will help your teen learn to make better decisions about their daily life choices.
Video Game Rehab New York
Video game addiction help can be a lifesaver for many. 53% of college campers say video games caused them to put off doing academic work. One study that examined adolescent video game play found that campers who played video games spent 30% less time reading. The same study found that kids who play video games during the week spent 34% less time doing homework.
Imagine if your child was able to devote the same mental energy it took to become good at their favorite game on a subject in school like math or science. At Summerland Camps for Video Game Addiction, we can turn this around. Sometimes it takes an environmental change and an opportunity to walk the path of success to see happiness achieved through hard work, not idle time playing.
Video game addiction help is most successful if it addresses all aspects of a teen’s life. Generally, but not always, academic performance has been affected by teens and young adults who need video game rehab. At Summerland Camps for Video Game Addiction, we combine regular classes with online classes so that your teen will have a chance to succeed academically while learning how to manage their online activities.
Our specialized curriculum will ensure your child gets back on track academically as we create successful, corrective academic opportunities for your child. The New York school system may have failed your child, but our focused academic program will help your student get back on track.

Video Game Addiction Help: Individual and Group Therapy for New York Teens and Young Adults at Summerland Camps for Video Game Addiction
Teens and Young Adults at our addiction program receive individual and group therapy for video game addiction and internet overuse habits. We have licensed therapists helping teens and young adults develop insight and commit to new routines in life. In individual therapy, the issues are brought forth with one therapist listening and responding to the concerns. The type of feedback that is given, or if feedback is given, is dependent on the therapist’s training. The highly personal nature of the exchange between the therapist and student allows for a specific focus on the issues presented.
Group therapy, on the other hand, involves simultaneous interaction with people typically outside the client’s social and familial network: relative strangers. Our campers can hear how video games have affected other’s lives and relationships. Input can be both given and received from other campers in this format.
We also have family therapy sessions where we help parents best support their teen upon their transition home from Summerland Camps for Video Game Addiction. We discuss in family sessions how parents can reinforce positive feelings when a child sticks to their behavioral contract and we also encourage parents to reinforce negative feelings when the child fails to live up to behavioral expectations.
