Young Adult Therapy in Santa Rosa

Helping young adults learn to live in an uncertain world with confidence, clarity, and self-esteem.

 

Psychotherapy for anxious and overwhelmed young adults in Sonoma County

You worry so much about making a mistake that you don’t even take the first step. All the decisions you have to make keep you frozen in fear- what if you make the wrong choice? Sometimes you feel hopeless because you cannot envision what your future looks like, and that freaks you out.

You worry constantly about what others think of you.

You’ve spent so much time trying to make sure you don’t offend, bother, or hurt other people, that you forgot about your own needs. It feels like walking on eggshells in social situations. You know you put up with being treated poorly by others, but setting boundaries, saying “no”, or standing up for yourself seems like an impossible task.

You can’t manage life right now

The FOMO is real for you, sometimes doing way too much to the point of mental and physical exhaustion. Sometimes sitting in your room for hours, maybe days, trying to distract yourself from your ruminating thoughts about the bad stuff that happened to you in your past and procrastinating everything you know you need to get done.

What if life wasn’t such a struggle anymore? What if you could learn to live your life in a way that you felt really good about?

“Our world today is nothing like what it has been before. No wonder it feels scary to take the next small move- everything feels like a potential hazard to your mental and physical well-being.

This is why I practice Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with young adult clients. It works even if everything around you feels like chaos.”

In ACT therapy, you can learn to:

Be fully in the present moment (without constant overthinking) so you can enjoy life again. Get back to the things you love.

Build real, lasting confidence to pursue your dreams and goals, even if procrastination, anxiety, and self-doubt has held you back before.

Learn the skills needed to build healthy relationships. Navigate dating, making friends, dealing with a breakup or a relationship anxiety.

Figure out who you are, your identity, and what do you need to do to take care of yourself. Setting boundaries with family and learning to live independently.
