Therapy for Young Adults

I specialize in working with mature teens and young adults on issues such as:

​

• Identity development

• Friendships

• School or work stress

• Sexuality

• Family conflict/individuation

• Self-esteem

​

Young adulthood, typically between the ages of 17-35, is a challenging and transformative period. It’s a time for discovering who you are and gaining independence from your family of origin. This journey can be exciting, confusing, and sometimes painful.

​

During this phase, we are balancing the pressures of work, school, family expectations, and social obligations while exploring who we want to become. Trying on different identities, forming new friendships, and deciding on career paths are all part of the process, but it can bring significant stress and uncertainty.

​

Therapy can make this period of transition smoother. I help teens young adults identify their core values, navigate evolving relationships, set healthy boundaries, and build self-confidence.

My approach is supportive, nonjudgmental, and thoughtful, and I believe therapy should be both enjoyable and meaningful. Together, we’ll build a trusting relationship, working to uncover the root of your challenges, see yourself more clearly, and achieve your goals. I will gently challenge you to release old patterns and approach adulthood in a way that aligns with your values. You’ll have a space to express your thoughts and feelings, and I’ll offer insightful feedback to help you move forward in a productive, fulfilling way.
