Why Sequel TSI?

Sequel TSI, formerly Three Springs, Inc., a nationally-recognized leader in youth services, was founded in 1985 to provide therapy and education to adolescents struggling with emotional, behavioral and learning issues. Our experienced, trained staff members strive to provide compassionate, professional support to the children in our care.

Sequel TSI believes in a therapeutic community model. We believe that residential treatment is intended to create a break and change in the behavioral patterns of troubled adolescents, reconciliation with family members and successful transition back into the family and community. Our therapeutic communities within the program setting are supported through a system of positive peer culture influence and leadership with our milieu as a venue of treatment. The treatment model evolved from combining clinical, psycho-social and cognitive-behavioral evidenced-based elements and practices.

Sequel TSI embraces a holistic approach with a detailed system of behavioral standards that addresses an array of emotional and behavioral difficulties that often co-occur with adolescents. Treatment planning and decisions regarding the program's response to client behaviors are flexible and individualized. Treatment and education are gender specific and follow a phased level system format consistent with the needs and progress of our youth.

Among other programs, Sequel TSI offers an alternative to boot camps and other harsh programs. The difference between Sequel TSI programs and boot camp lies in our approach to treatment. Our focus is on the provision of a caring, supportive environment to promote behavioral changes and academic competency in youth. We are a member of the Better Business Bureau.
