Middle School

The middle school years can be confusing as youth try to navigate larger schools, manage academic pressures, and find their identity.

 

We help students make the most of this time by focusing on building curiosity and passion for learning.

Building Skills for Future Success

Mentoring in the middle school years is crucial for developing basic skills that will serve as a foundation for the future. Areas that we work on during this influential age are:​

​

  1.  Relationship Building

    •  Understanding and managing emotions

      •  Communicating with peers and adults

      •  Virtual versus Personal

  2.  Excellence Requirements

    • Work Ethic

    • Organization

    • Study Skills

    • Time Management

    • Integrity

    • Character

    •  Leadership

    • Consistency

Advising​ vs Therapy

 

Youth often see therapy as an attempt to fix a deficiency whereas Advising is about building on strengths, interests, and skills. I am happy to collaborate with therapists as appropriate to support youth in becoming their best selves!
