Video Game Addiction Help: Residential Therapy for Washington Teens and Young Adults and Young Adults
At Summerland Camps for Video Game Addiction, we support Washington teens and young adults through our video game rehab program. We can work in tandem with therapists back home in Washington to ensure smooth continuity of care. We provide multiple group counseling sessions while in the program.
While working with an outpatient therapist can be helpful, sometimes a teen or young adult just needs a higher level of help than outpatient therapy can provide. For outpatient therapy to be effective, the participant needs to engage with the therapist. For example, most behavioral therapists have the student journal or track behaviors in order to change behaviors.
If a child is unwilling to do these most basic components of help, parents should look at going up to the next level of intervention. This can be a help center like Summerland Camps for Video Game Addiction which specializes in video game addiction help.
Military boarding schools or short-term options like camps for video game addiction help should be avoided. Change takes time, and a punitive approach can result in a child pushing back against authority.
If Your Washington Need Only Feels Successful Online, Now is the Time for Help
Consider the cost of doing nothing. If you send your child off to college not prepared to deal with unstructured time, how likely will they be in the 50% that fail to graduate college? Consider the cost of wasted tuition, wasted time, and the cost of supporting your child back at home if they fail to thrive. Investing in Summerland Camps for Video Game Addiction is insignificant compared to the cost of failure.
Best of all, we teach managing screen time in an actual school atmosphere. Your child will be engaging in nature activities, sports, arts, and so much more. There is no better setting to prepare a child for the independence of life after high school.
Now is the time for action. If your teen is having negative interactions with others in school and missing out on social interactions, the window of opportunity is fast closing. At Summerland Camps for Video Game Addiction, we can provide those corrective experiences your child needs to put them on the right path in life.

Video Game Addiction Help for Washington Teens and Young Adults and Young Adults
Washington families seek our video game rehab center because of our unique ability to adapt to the academic curriculum for Washington 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 their 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 Addiction Help: Individual and Group Therapy for Washington Teens and Young Adults and Young Adults at Summerland Camps for Video Game Addiction
Teens and Young Adults and Young Adults at our 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.
