All about Anxiety at College

Today I’m talking about college student anxiety. I’m going over some basics of anxiety disorders, what they look like from a clinical perspective and, most importantly, what can be done to treat college students. For more information, check out this episode’s show notes and visit my blog at motivatecounseling.com. I also have a whole chapter on anxiety in my first book Insider’s Guide to Parenting: How to Solve Messy Problems and Build a Great Family. You can find it on amazon.

undefined - When to Take a Gap Year

When to Take a Gap Year

Today I’m talking about when college students should consider taking a gap year or semester. I’m going over what a gap year is, different reasons to take a gap year, and a review of the options. I’m using the term gap year but it could also stand for gap semester or even an early withdrawal from a semester. Gap years tend to refer to time off between high school and the start of college but it can also refer to taking a semester or two off when in college. These breaks are typically when students hit pause on traditional academic work and do something like volunteering, traveling with friends or participating in a therapeutic wilderness or treatment program.
