One of the most notable aspects of therapeutic wilderness rehab centers is the fact that many distractions that are recurrent in traditional therapeutic programs (e.g., mobile devices, internet) are not permitted. This means that the young adult participants within the program will have far fewer distractions and, thus, will remain focused on their change goals and therapeutic treatments.
