Trapped In Treatment is a new docu-style podcast series from Paris Hilton, London Audio, iHeartMedia, and Warner Bros. Unscripted Television in association with Telepictures, that will examine and expose the dark secrets of the “Troubled Teen Industry.” Beginning with Provo Canyon School, each season will focus on the story of one youth treatment facility, its survivors, and the traumatizing abuse at the hands of their captors. Hosted by Caroline Cole and Rebecca Mellinger, Trapped in Treatment weaves together personal accounts with historical detail and expert opinions to shine a light on what really happens at behavior modification centers and how this billion-dollar industry has flourished for so long.

Customer Reviews
Trail Carolina
Is trails Carolina part of the wwasp program?
Only one side
I agree with Lisa another reviewer who stated that you should discuss why the kids are sent to these facilities. At a certain point, after therapy at home and with continued dangerous behavior of teen’s parents feel helpless and have few alternatives. Easy to throw stones
Gratitude
Thank you for shining your light on a dangerous and abusive industry. This happened to me in the 90s. When I got home, I started talking about it, but no one believed me. It became a joke at my expense with my family. They started calling it Camp Snoppy, and no idea why. I think it was easier to laugh about it instead of healing the wound and pain it left. I’ve pushed it so far down inside that I don’t remember a lot of the experience. So I’m doing the work now, it’s never too late to start.
I feel so very seen and heard hearing about your experience, efforts and what you’re learning along the way. I hope law makers are paying attention and are willing to make permanent ethical and safety changes. I’m hopeful that other industries that treat children will review their processes and procedures.
So grateful for you! 🩷
