Adolescence & Emerging Adulthood
A lot can change between ages 13 and 30.
Adolescents and emerging adults experience rapid change in self-identity, sense of independence, responsibilities, relationships, and life direction. It is important to have a steady, supportive space to make sense of new pressures, build confidence, and develop skills for navigating challenges during this important stage of life and development.
Transition to College
Starting college often brings excitement alongside stress related to academic demands, social group and friendship transitions, increased independence, separation from family of origin, and uncertainty about the future. Therapy can help young adults manage anxiety, adjust to new people, places, and things, strengthen coping abilities, and build healthy, supportive relationships that foster success across contexts.
Transition to Career
Entering the workforce or choosing a career path can feel overwhelming, especially when expectations, financial pressures, and self-doubt begin to take hold. I support emerging adults seeking to clarify their personal and professional goals, build mental and emotional resilience for the workplace, and develop confidence in decision-making while balancing work demands with mental health and personal relationships.
Building Healthy Romantic Relationships
Early romantic relationships can play a powerful role in shaping long-term mental and physical health. Therapy can help adolescents and emerging adults develop emotional awareness, set healthy boundaries, navigate conflict like a pro, and build relationship skills that support secure and fulfilling partnerships over time.
