Failure to Launch Program in Richardson, TX
At CWK Counseling in Richardson, TX, I specialize in supporting mothers whose adult sons are struggling to thrive — emotionally stuck, financially dependent, or unable to move forward. This is often called “Failure to Launch,” but it’s not about failure — it’s about getting unstuck. My counseling program is designed for moms who feel trapped in the cycle of worry, resentment, and guilt — and who are ready to find relief, clarity, and a way forward.
Whether you’re in Texas, Florida, Alabama, Colorado, or Louisiana, I offer online therapy and telehealth support that meets you wherever you are — logistically and emotionally.
What Is The Failure to Launch Program?
The Failure to Launch Program is for moms quietly drowning in the stress of watching their adult children stall out. This work helps you sort through what’s yours to carry and what’s not — learning the difference between enabling and supporting, and finding your footing again when compassion and accountability feel like a tug-of-war.
What You’ll Learn:
You’ll learn how to manage your own anxiety without trying to micromanage your grown kid’s life. You’ll get practical tools for setting boundaries that don’t feel like punishment, and space to grieve the life you imagined while learning to live in the one you have.
This isn’t just about them — it’s about helping you reclaim your identity and your joy.
How CWK Counseling Supports Moms of Failure-to-Launch Sons
Family Systems Therapy

Spot the difference between enabling and supporting
-
Break the guilt → overfunctioning → resentment cycle

Set boundaries that encourage independence (without feeling cruel)​

Recognize reactive parenting patterns
