Who We Help

Chinese international students age 18-26, currently enrolled in colleges and universities outside of Mainland China.

 

What We Teach

Stress Management

A significant percentage of international students experience anxiety and depression while in school. “Forty-five percent reported symptoms of depression, and 29% reported symptoms of anxiety” according to the National Library of Medicine on a report of Chinese students at Yale. This is not uncommon and we must address this issue with care, attention and expertise.

Cultural and Community

International students often have difficulties integrating themselves in local community groups. We help students become more proactive and resourceful, so that they are ready to explore and adapt the new culture they are now living in. We also offer dating and relationship coaching. Understanding the influences and rituals among different cultures can lead to happier, more successful college friendships and relationships.

College to Career Transition

The transition from college to graduate school, internship or a full-time career in a foreign country can be exciting but also stressful. International students inevitably face decisions local students don’t, such as interviews, immigration status change, in search of a more permanent place to live, etc. This is only the tip of the iceberg. We help students make a smooth transition and be mentally prepared for a challenging and exciting time.
