Why BridgeCare Academy

It’s hard to excel in school today. It’s even harder to outperform your own goals. There are so many distractions from social media to extracurricular activities, and from personal interests and hobbies to having a social life. It all takes time and focus and can be hard to make the best choices.

 

Transitioning from high school to college is even worse, the academic workload is greater and the new-found freedom of living on your own can make focusing on your priorities nearly impossible. It isn’t surprising that a staggering 76% of students in this age group report feeling overwhelmed, while 57% report experiencing mental health issues.

 

Despite an array of resources available, counselors, tutors, coaches, and therapists, student utilization of these resources remains low because mental health issues are merely a symptom of deeper issues. Most students want to do well, they want to excel and exceed expectations.

 

It’s natural to want to feel good about yourself but achieving that desire can be difficult without the right tools. Tools like good life habits and the resilience to overcome self-sabotaging temptations. The piecemeal assistance of existing solutions is a band-aid. You need a proactive, systemic approach that holistically addresses your needs, an approach that encompasses both your immediate needs and the underlying causes.
