Therapy for Young Adults
You have had to adapt to so many changes this past year. Maybe you had to spend part of your college experience online, or started your career in the midst of a pandemic. On top of that, you are expected to know what you want to do long-term. I am here to help you take the pressure off of yourself and help you get clear on what you want and need in your life.
The transition into college and/or out on your own can be a challenging, confusing and even frightening experience. Change is hard for everyone. And, while the major life transition into adulthood comes with an abundance of new opportunities, it also comes with new responsibilities, challenges, and expectations. You might also struggle with depression, anxiety, and low confidence as you attempt to navigate a bigger and broader world without the same guidance and support offered by family or school as you received when you were younger.
At this stage of life, some of the most important questions that you might ask yourself concern self-identity, direction, and desires for the future. While these can be exciting questions, they can also come charged with uncertainty and fear. One of the main goals of counseling for young adults is to explore and address these questions as you begin to really identify who you are, what’s important to you, where you want to go, and how you’d like to get there.
You don’t have to navigate this difficult transition on your own. Life is challenging, but it’s possible to see challenges as opportunities to build confidence and to learn from your experiences. With help and a willingness to get to know yourself better and make positive changes, you can experience relief and create a positive path forward.
