Dear Parents of the Graduating Class of 2025,
As your remarkable students prepare to embark on their exciting journey to college, we understand that this transition is a significant milestone for you as well. To help you navigate this pivotal time with confidence and grace, we warmly invite you to an insightful conversation led by Drew's dedicated Counselor, Kirsten Fawcett-Dubow, LCSW.
Join us as Kirsten shares her expertise and guidance on key aspects of this transition, including:
- Easing Worries: Learn effective strategies for responding to and validating your child's anxieties as they prepare for this new chapter.
- Finding Your Center: Discover practical techniques for managing your own emotions and anxieties as you support your child's independence.
- The Art of Letting Go: Gain concrete, actionable tips for approaching the often emotional drop-off day with intention and care.
- Sustaining Connection: Explore meaningful strategies for providing ongoing support to your child in the weeks and months after they've settled into college life – and beyond.
