Research driven results
From the beginning, Aspiro has sought out experts to help us improve our program and analyze effectiveness. We are active members of the Outdoor Behavioral Healthcare Council and the National Association of Therapeutic Schools and Programs, organizations that uphold professional best practices and ethical, researched-based standards. As a demonstration of our commitment to program development, Aspiro has also pioneered and funded many studies about the effectiveness of Wilderness and Adventure Therapy.
Aspiro’s research is producing some of the most important and interesting results in the field of wilderness and adventure therapy. This research has been foundational in our deeper understanding of the wilderness adventure therapy model and our ability to effectively implement it in treatment.
Over the last several years, each of our therapists, field guides, and students have been involved in our research efforts. With each new finding, we are able to adjust programming to improve therapeutic interventions and ultimately our outcomes.
