The transition from adolescence to young adult or from high school to college life can be a particularly vulnerable time, with immense changes and pressures from family, peers, school/work, and society.
The most common mental health disorders seen in young adults and college students are anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders. Left untreated, anxiety and depression can significantly impact social, academic, and family functioning and increase the risk of substance use and mental health disorders persisting into later adult life.
As a young adult you may sometimes have a hard time recognizing that you need help or might be experiencing mental health problems, because anxiety and depression may manifest behaviorally through acting out, low motivation, having a lot of physical complaints, doing poorly academically, or relationship issues.
I provide young adults and college students an outlet to process what they are going through and learn how to better manage and reduce emotional, relationship and stress related problems and improve life functioning.
