Academic Plan
For my academic plan, I would like to focus on regular meetings with a counselor in order to keep myself consistent with the progress I make in regards to my mental health. This would then allow me to develop my ability to focus on my academics like I once was. These counseling sessions have already shown little but important improvement in my grades as appointments with student wellness has allowed me to pass some of my classes, unlike the year when I had no guidance. As well, I would divide my course load in a way that is more time-manageable. This would mean taking lighter course loads and taking summer courses to spread the amount of time I could allocate to academics so that I could balance my priorities. On a personal level, the work I do with my counselor in therapy will help me make improvements in my self-esteem, and therefore, the relationship I have with my parents. I would like to minimize their access to personal information and their control over finances so that I can develop as an individual without the unhealthy amounts of pressure or guilt.
