Evoke Therapy Programs are clinically focused with Masters and Doctorate level therapists working together with Field Guides as a treatment team to create treatment plans and goals. Field Guides are empowered to be highly involved with creating a client’s personal treatment plan and assignments. Treatment plans are individualized for each participant.
Guides work in a team of four to five with a group of eight to 10 clients. The treatment team helps process the cause and effect relationship that living in the wilderness provides and guides participants in developing new choice-making skills. Evoke Field Guides focus on teaching clients how to communicate assertively and be accountable for their choices.
Outside Magazine chose Evoke as a “best place to work” five years in a row for health and wellness, and we’re the only outdoor wilderness program selected. Check out photos of our typical field guide experiences.
