The Space Counselor

Where human resilience meets the final frontier.Space isn’t just rockets, satellites, and technology—it’s people. Behind every mission are humans carrying stress, dreams, fears, and the weight of exploration itself. That’s where the space counselor comes in.I’m Dr. Jennifer Young, PhD, LMHC, pursuing a Master's in Space Operations. I am a counselor educator, researcher, and innovator at the crossroads of mental health and space systems. My mission is simple: to prepare people, teams, and organizations for the psychological realities of going beyond Earth.
