Second Nature is proud to announce that as of January of 2006 we have entered into a partnership with the Willow Creek School. David Hillstead, Sam Dahlin and Mollie Mylar have transitioned into their new roles at the Willow Creek School. We all have experienced some sadness in leaving the wilderness, but bring with us much excitement and enthusiasm for our new roles at Willow Creek.

Mollie will be the Director of Admissions. David will be leading the family therapy component, while Sam will be focusing on our comprehensive addictions program. Mirroring Second Nature's philosophy of owner involvement, David and Sam will each maintain a full caseload of students.

We have been focusing on integrating more of an emotionally focused component, by helping the students understand the real feelings that are driving their unhealthy coping mechanisms. We are working to create a clinical team that will move away from behaviorism to an approach that provides the students with a strong resource to understand themselves and their needs.

As we help students develop a more heightened awareness of their personal needs, we can then integrate our academic and vocational program to give students real opportunities to discover their strengths and talents. We believe that each student is very unique and we are prepared to be flexible and creative in meeting their treatment needs.

We are committed to a holistic approach that will not only manage the students in this school, but will give them the tools to find success and happiness in their lives.

If you have any questions about Willow Creek School, please contact Mollie Mylar at the number listed above or 801-201-8717 (cell). We look forward to working with you.

Best regards,

David, Sam and Mollie
