The Vision
To facilitate Empowering Conversations with adolescents and youths through Connection, Openness, Resilience, and Determination.
The Mission
Virtual Reality Therapy(VRT)
We live in a dynamic, tech-advanced world where traditional one-on-one conversations with youths may not always be sufficient to effect change. Virtual Reality Therapy (VRT) is a novel therapeutic modality that has been shown to effectively reduce anxieties, panic, and impulse control challenges in young people. When combined with traditional therapeutic techniques, VRT can produce a sustained improvement in emotional and behavioral presentation, offering a modern and engaging approach to mental wellness.
Resilience in Practice
Adversities cannot be avoided. They are often outside of a youth's control. With this is mind, we teach resilience in a group setting where youths can transcend difficulites together.
Mental Health Toolbox
This is a carefully curated set of techniques, activities, and supportive resources tailored to meet the unique needs of young people. Recognizing that mental well-being is as crucial as academic success, this toolbox empowers students, parents, and educators alike by providing practical strategies to enhance emotional resilience, manage stress, and build positive connections.
Mindful Leaders
Creating mindful leaders in youths is about fostering self-awareness, compassion, and intentional decision-making. It's a multifaceted process that goes beyond traditional leadership training to cultivate a deeper understanding of oneself and others.
