YOUNG ADULT

THERAPY

The journey into adulthood can be difficult.
Let us help you navigate through it.

Young adults are faced with unique challenges. Whether you are exploring educational and career decisions, transitioning to becoming more independent, or considering the complexities of relationship dynamics, you don’t have to do it alone. Thrive Child Psychology providers are experts in supporting this developmental stage. We collaborate with young adults to discern current challenges, generate strategies to overcome them, and provide evidence-based tools to assist in achieving them. Through our client-centered approach, we create a safe and nonjudgmental environment for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences in order to attain self-understanding and personal fulfillment. Using strategies grounded in cognitive-behavioral therapy, solution-focused treatment, and positive psychology, we help young people not just survive the transition to adulthood but THRIVE.

What does therapy with young adults look like?

Our approach to treatment with young adults involves traditional one-on-one talk therapy. We start the process by cultivating a strong therapeutic alliance, gaining a better understanding of current difficulties, and establishing your goals for our work together. We will meet weekly or bi-weekly to provide emotional support, guidance, and research-based tools to help you navigate the complexities of life and achieve your personal and professional goals. We recognize that young adulthood is marked by significant transitions such as moving away from home, starting college or a career, entering into serious relationships, and/or becoming financially independent. We are dedicated to supporting you through those transitions, empowering you to make well-informed choices, and facilitating personal growth and well-being.
