PIVOTPoint WNC
Therapeutic Adventure Work

PIVOTPoint is an innovative therapeutic adventure company that harnesses the power of nature to drive transformation.

We deliver a unique combination of outdoor adventure and real-world challenges, enabling our clients to overcome obstacles and reach new heights.

Who We Support

You. All of our programs are centered around a re-introduction to yourself. Each outing consists of a small group of those hoping to gain connection, self-awareness, and personal agency through character building exercises and activities. Groups are set according to age. With few exceptions, all groups are all gender inclusive. Whether you are navigating challenges with mental health, behavioral health, or a less-than-ideal relationship to drugs and alcohol, we got you.

Since beginning the program, my son has been steadily moving in a positive direction. I can see the light returning to his eyes. I can have meaningful conversations with him. These are the first and most important steps toward building back broken trust and fostering the kind of growth he needs to successfully transition into adulthood. This program is unquestionably invaluable. A gem in a daunting and overwhelming sea of counseling, therapy and rehab.

What is Experiential Coaching?

 A coaching modality that focuses on learning through direct experience and active participation. It moves beyond traditional coaching methods and creates opportunities for clients to engage in nature and adventure based activities that increase insights gained, develop skills, and achieve personal/professional growth.

Our Programs

At PIVOTPoint, we provide therapeutic adventure programs that help clients identify areas of strength and resilience.

We help you develop relationships that support and maintain healthy living – with yourself and others.

  • We ask you to do difficult things. 
  • We ask you to take a hard look at yourself and how you show up in the world.
  • We ask you to reframe that. To try new ways of relating to yourself and your world.
  • We ask you to get used to life playing out other than the way you want.
  • We ask you to change.
  • And we ask you to let us be a part of that.
