Are you struggling with…



Becoming an adult is when you’re expected to have it all figured out, but no one gave you the manual.

Young adulthood can feel like a constant balancing act - navigating career choices, relationships, finances, and mental health - all while facing the pressure to “have it all together.” The truth is, no one handed you a manual for this stage of life and that may make you feeling overwhelmed, lost, and uncertain. Furthermore, as you reflected on your childhood you may be starting to realize that you’ve been struggling with issues that you didn’t realize were a problem for a long time. You’re not alone in this struggle, and it’s completely normal to be figuring things out as you go.


Here’s what we’ll do together.

Even in your hardest moments, growth and healing is still possible.
Hope is closer than you think.

Young adulthood is filled with both opportunities and pressures - both outside and within yourself. You may be questioning your identity, struggling with self-doubt, or feeling stuck between where you are and where you want to be. The pressure to “figure it all out” can take a toll on mental health, leading to stress, burnout, or feelings of isolation. We recognize that this is a crucial period of self-discovery and that seeking support isn’t a sign of weakness—it’s a step toward building a healthier, more confident future.

If you’re experiencing persistent symptom - such as overwhelming anxiety, depression, mood swings, difficulty focusing, or intense stress - that interfere with your daily life, relationships, or responsibilities, it may be time to explore medication as an option.

    Some signs that medication could help include struggling to function at work or school, feeling emotionally drained despite therapy and self-care efforts, or noticing that symptoms are worsening over time. If you’re dealing with conditions like ADHD, anxiety, depression, or trauma-related disorders, medication can be a valuable tool to help restore balance and stability alongside potential therapy and lifestyle changes.

  • Deciding whether to start with medication or therapy depends on your symptoms, personal preferences, and treatment goals. Some people see therapy as a great first step, especially if you’re experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, or difficulty managing life’s challenges. Therapy can provide coping strategies, emotional support, and tools for personal growth, helping you build resilience and navigate struggles more effectively.

    Other people find their mental health too overwhelming to manage and so they find medication helpful as their helpful first option. Medication can help stabilize mood, reduce overwhelming emotions, and improve focus. Because therapy and medications have two different methods and goals to support your mental health, most conditions recommend therapy and medications as a the “gold standard” to best support your wellbeing.
