Testimonials

“LifeWorks gave me the support that I needed so badly. I was able to immediately connect with much of the student body because we could all relate to each other. The teachers are very understanding and will do anything to help you succeed and make the most of your education. My life has changed drastically from being at LifeWorks and I now have a successful career in real estate.”

LifeWorks Alumni, Class of 2015

Testimonials

“Before LifeWorks, my severe anxiety made it nearly impossible to get myself to school, and I was starting to take steps to drop out. Giving LifeWorks a chance was the best decision that I have ever made.The LifeWorks staff taught me to manage my anxiety, helped me catch up on almost a year’s worth of missed work, and graduate on time! Using the copingskills that I acquiredat LifeWorks, I was also able to continue my education, graduate from college with honors, and now have a successful career in business. I will be forever grateful to LifeWorks for giving me the life that I have today.”

LifeWorks Alumni, Class of 2011

Testimonials

Our son came to you in great need, having been bruised by experiences at another school, deeply anxious, afraid to trust that school could be a positive place for him. We watched him go from downcast to once again thudding through the house with more of a lift to his face–and feet! His grades rose to a place reflecting his intellect, and he made new friends. We will always be grateful for your help in bringing our son back to himself, for helping him begin to overcome his deep anxiety and his struggle to accept his condition while seeking to overcome its limitations. We highly recommend LifeWorks as a school.

Parent of LifeWorks Student
