Launchees: Counseling

Launchee Counseling and Therapy

This individual therapy supports youths who are experiencing a lot of anxiety, stress, family conflicts, fear, anger, depression, confusion or any other difficult feelings that are coming up regarding going away to college or leaving home. Therapy can teach youths ways to cope. It can help clear away past regrets or negative experiences, allowing a safe place for them to express themselves. This gives them the ability to tune into their deeper selves, and process issues that are interfering with their confidence and abilities to be successful in their first years away from home. This will guide them in self-awareness towards the transition into adulthood and this new chapter of their lives.

Teens will be given a place to work through some difficult things that they need to let go of in order to get off on the right foot of their new journey. They will:

Learn how to manage their difficult feelings and learn to appropriately express themselves in a clear and direct manner that will help them get their needs met.
Be given the opportunity to move through fears, anticipations and prepare for making their life the way that they truly would like it to be.
Learn how to tap into their own inner resources as a source of strength and create a solid internal foundation in which to move forward from.
