Nextgen Method
What Methods Do We Use?
NextGen has opened its Center in Prince George’s County, serving as a central hub for Therapeutic Services and a locus for providing interrelated programs and events to identify and build on family personal strengths; improve self-esteem, self-worth, and self-efficacy; acquire social and life skills; and engage meaningfully in school, family, and community life.
Therapeutic Services: At NextGen we recognize the critical difference between mental health and mental illness – terms often used interchangeably but with distinct meanings. Mental health refers to a person’s overall emotional and psychological well-being, while mental illness involves diagnosable conditions that impact mood, thinking, and behavior. As the World Health Organization states, “There is no health without mental health.“
While not every individual will experience a mental illness, ALL PEOPLE — especially youth navigating complex life circumstances — face challenges to their mental well-being. Our therapeutic services are designed to support both ends of this spectrum, helping youth build resilience, overcome adversity, and thrive emotionally, socially, and spiritually.
Our Therapeutic services include:
Individual and Family Therapy
Youth Therapy
Virtual Reality Therapy
Aromatherapy
Therapeutic Exercises
Mediation and Conflict Resolution
Spiritual Enrichment
In addition to these services, NextGen provides SUBPROGRAMS to help young people identify and build on their personal strengths. See descriptions in drop-down box under Nextgen Method Button.
