Young Adults

A plea for help

Have you or the young adult in your life ever shut down, retreated to be alone, or refused to talk to you with no explanation? Have they complained of feeling anxious, bored, or depressed? Have you witnessed explosions of anger, yelling, or physical violence? These are some of the ways young people communicate that they are hurting, and that they need support.

Failure to launch

 

“Failure to launch” is a term commonly used to describe young adults who are struggling to find the motivation to complete even the most basic daily tasks. This can be linked to severe anxiety, depression, and/or poor social skills. Young people that appear to be unmotivated or uninterested in the outside world are often forced to suffer in silence, and can mistakenly believe that the adults in their lives do not care. I help my clients find purpose and meaning within themselves that will last a lifetime.

My Mission

My mission is to teach today’s emerging adults how to manage and communicate about difficult emotions. Unfortunately, young adults often lack the vocabulary and experience to express how they are feeling and do not know how to reach out to others for support. Uncontrollable crying, intense anger, or a stone-walling are common strategies used to communicate that one needs help. If you’ve noticed any of these behaviors, you are not alone. Talk to somebody with the skills and experience to provide the help you or your loved one needs.

The Gen Z and Millennial youth entering adulthood today face unique challenges that are often misunderstood by earlier generations. Eventually, parents realize that sometimes things will not just get better on their own. I work with parents who feel unable to communicate with the young adult in their lives. As a Millennial and product of the digital age, I understand the struggles faced by emerging adults, and aim to support the growth and development of our new generation of young people.
