Freire’s emotional support team provides regular counseling services to all students in need of therapy. In addition to our in-house certified family therapist, Freire partners with local graduate programs in counseling psychology to provide a team of graduate students studying the science of emotional support who work with Freire students under the close direction of the Director of Emotional Support Services. Any and all family members of a Freire student are also welcome to participate in emotional support therapy sessions.
