Cell Phone Addiction Help For Teens From Nevada

Camp Pocono Trails Provides Help for Nevada Teens With Real Solutions

At our Residential Programs for Troubled Young Adults, therapists, psychiatrists, counselors, teachers, nursing and activity staff all work together as a multidisciplinary team to help your child.  By participating in a positive peer culture, campers learn how to socialize appropriately and interact in the real world without the use of screens. Over time we will reintroduce your student to screens in a slow, systematic manner.  

Residential Programs for Troubled Young Adults are only effective if the parents are role modeling the behaviors they want to see with their child.  Children will be more inclined to read if they see a parent reading. They will be more inclined to exercise if they see a parent exercising. Find a hobby or activity your child might be interested in doing where you can spend time together in lieu of video game playing or browsing the internet.  Researchers also recommend replacing fast-paced recreational games with educational games.

Our Video Game Addiction Help Program help teens from Nevada with the following issues:

  • Video Game Addiction
  • ADHD
  • Social issues
  • Disorganization
  • Family Discord

At our Residential Program for Troubled Young Adults, we don™t accept teens with psychosis or higher level issues.  In fact, many of our campers are quite bright with promising futures. Any student enrolled at Camp Pocono Trails must have an intellectual capacity in the average range or higher.  This is because our help is oriented toward building insight.

Participants engage in group and individual therapy to self-reflect and build insight.  But the help doesn’t stop there. We help young people find practical coping skills to align their daily routine with their long-term goals.  It™s not enough to acknowledge you have a problem- although that is a good starting place. Campers at our video game rehab program also leave with the skills and tools to be successful well beyond the structure of Camp Pocono Trails.

Is Your Child Addicted to Online Games? Our Residential Program for Troubled Young Adults is the Answer

Many parents that enroll their child at a residential program for young adults try in-home interventions first.  A behavioral contract can work, but parents need to remember that a contract is like a marriage. Both parties need to agree.  You can’t just force the rules upon your child. Ask them what they want to work for, and how much time is reasonable to play online after homework is done. 

However, is gaming is an ongoing source of tension in your family, you may be beyond the stage of trying an in-home intervention.  If any attempt to curb your teen™s video game use or cellphone/computer use results in a heated argument, please give us a call today.

Residential help provides a reset on family relationships, but also with the relationship the child has with video games and the internet.  Simply put, the surest way to change a child’s video game habits is to create a total reset with online activity. That;s where our gaming rehab comes into play.

Ultimately, developing a child’s ability to self-manage their use of technology for entertainment should be the primary focus.  We focus on this notion at our residential program for young adults. However, if you are ready to try some lower level interventions, here are some resources to help guide you:

Residential Program for Troubled Young Adults Resource: Steam Setup

Many gamers that come to our residential program for young adults use a Steam account to manage their game settings.  Here is a comprehensive guide for parents to manage your child’s Steam account.

We encourage you to create a Steam account with your child. If there are features of Steam that you would like to exclude from the experience, you can restrict access using Family View. You may also choose to enable Family View on your own Steam account if you would rather they share your Steam Account.

To enable Family View:

  • Log into the Steam account your child will use.
  • Click the Steam menu in the top menu bar.
  • Open the Settings option.
  • Go to the “Family” tab on the left side of the window that opens.
  • Click œFamily View to start the Family View wizard.
  • Step through the wizard to select the content and features you™d like to be accessible while in PIN-protected Family View.
  • Select and confirm your new PIN.

With any gaming company, we recommend you check game ratings and actually have your child demonstrate the game before allowing any unsupervised play.  You can also go on Youtube to watch a game œwalk through to see how violence and adult themes are portrayed.
