Psychotherapy for young adults and Older teens

You may be struggling with doubts & concerns:

  1. What should I do next?
  2. How do I know if the next step is my own, or my parent’s/teacher’s/boyfriend’s?
  3. Is college or a particular career choice right for me? Is it right for me now?
  4. How can I forge my own path if I don’t feel passionate about anything?
  5. How can I choose a path when I feel passionate about so many things?
  6. Why do I feel like a failure when I make a mistake?
  7. What will happen to my old friendships as I start making changes?
  8. How can I develop close relationships while maintaining my individuality?

This is a great time to make changes in your life. The very questions that sometimes plague you are proof that you’re exactly where you need to be: in transition.  There are choices to make, and it’s natural to be confused and to change your mind often.  Maybe very often.  You’ll be trying things out: clothes, hairstyles, majors, schools, jobs, relationships, ideas.  It will take time to figure out what feels right for you. And you will figure it out.

Therapy can help you...

  1. Define your goals and values
  2. Stop measuring yourself by other peoples’ yardsticks
  3. Develop resilience in the face of life’s inevitable obstacles
  4. Learn from your mistakes instead of being ashamed of them
  5. Identify your own strengths and recognize when you’re moving in the right direction
