Admission
Start the Journey Toward Growth and Healing
At Free Spirit Experience, admissions isn’t just a process - it’s the beginning of a relationship. We understand that reaching out can feel overwhelming. That’s why our admissions process is personal, compassionate, and responsive from the very first conversation.
Whether you’re exploring options for the summer, considering a gap year, or need an immediate placement through rolling admissions — we’re here to guide you step-by-step.

Who We Work With
We welcome teens and young adults (ages 14 - 24) who may be:
-
Feeling stuck, anxious, unmotivated, or isolated
-
Struggling with emotional regulation or executive functioning
-
Facing life transitions (post-treatment, academic burnout, or failure to launch)
-
Seeking a supportive, therapeutic alternative to traditional environments
Each applicant is considered holistically - we’re not looking for perfection; we’re looking for readiness and openness to grow.
