Young Adults

Counseling for Young Adults with Everyday Challenges

Young Adults can be a rough period in one’s life. I remember my late teen years to mid 20s being a period where I felt lost and confused. Did I want to go to school or work for a company that paid a lot of money? Choices. I was stuck and felt the pressure of needing to make up my mind….FAST!

I understand and can relate to that struggle. One thing I’ve found with my work with young adults is that deep down inside they all already know what they need/want to do in life, they just need validation and support to lead a life that is meaningful and productive. I can offer support and guidance to help discover their goals and help overcome mental barriers that get in the way.

In my work, I’ve found some common struggles that young adults face as they transition into adulthood. Here are a few struggles:

  1. Financial instability: Young adults often struggle with financial instability as they begin to manage their own finances for the first time.

  2. Uncertainty about the future: Many young adults feel uncertain about their future and struggle to find direction and purpose.

  3. Career challenges: Finding a fulfilling career and navigating the job market can be a significant challenge for young adults.

  4. Relationship issues: Young adults often face challenges in navigating romantic relationships and building meaningful connections with others.

  5. Mental health concerns: Young adults may experience anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues as they navigate the stress and uncertainty of early adulthood.

  6. Loneliness and isolation: With the rise of social media and technology, many young adults struggle with feelings of loneliness and isolation.

  7. Balancing responsibilities: Young adults must balance a variety of responsibilities, such as work, school, and relationships, which can be overwhelming and challenging.
