Upon a client's decision to take a wilderness experience with HealingQuest, the therapists at HealingQuest meet with the client's therapists to determine the goals of the individual's experience. The trips can be for an individual or a group of up to 8 people. Therapy can be group or individual depending on the needs of the client. Other elements included in the therapy can include: rock climbing, equine assisted therapy, ropes and adventure courses, physical challenges, rafting, and rites of passage. The experiences are meant to bring clarity and insight to the individual to assist in their recovery process.

The types of trips offered are very diverse and some include: dog sledding excursions, horse packing, rock climbing, ski trips, hiking excursions, and camping.
