The transition from adolescence to adulthood is often called a journey, but for many, it can feel more like being dropped into the deep end of the pool without a life vest. This is a time of immense change, where the pressure to “have it all figured out” can be overwhelming. You're expected to navigate a new sense of independence, manage complex relationships, and find your footing in the professional world, all while dealing with social and emotional expectations. 

At Inneractions, we understand that adulting comes with its own unique set of challenges. We offer specialized therapy for young adults to provide a supportive and understanding space as you navigate these pivotal years.

Navigating Young Adulthood with Support

Young adulthood is not just a collection of big moments; it's also a constant series of small, significant shifts that can leave you feeling lost or anxious. We’re here to help you navigate these transitions with confidence and clarity. Some of the reasons young adults seek out counseling are:

  • The College-to-Career Transition: We provide support for managing the pressure of finding a job, building professional relationships, and handling the anxiety that comes with entering the workforce.

  • Navigating Independence & Adult Responsibilities: Our therapists can help you develop practical life skills and build a new support system so that you can thrive on your own terms.

  • Social & Relationship Anxiety: Friendships often change, romantic relationships are more complex, and family dynamics shift. This may lead to feelings of loneliness or anxiety. We provide tools to help you communicate effectively, set healthy boundaries, and build authentic connections that enrich your life.

  • Addressing Other Mental Health Concerns: We provide a safe space to address challenges like depression, anxiety, burnout, adult neurodivergence diagnoses, impostor syndrome, and general feelings of being overwhelmed. We help you explore your identity and build resilience.

Therapy for Neurodivergent Young Adults

At Inneractions, our counselors are experienced in working with clients with various neurotypes. Our therapy for neurodivergent young adults is not about trying to "fix" or "cure" you. Instead, it’s about creating a space where you can understand and celebrate your unique neurological wiring, whether you are autistic, have ADHD, or identify with another neurotype.

The Neurodiversity-Affirming Approach: This philosophy is rooted in the belief that everyone’s brain is unique. We focus on affirming who you are, helping you recognize your strengths and empowering you to live an authentic life. Our goal is to work with you, not on you, developing strategies that fit your specific needs and communication style.

Working with Your Unique Wiring: We’ll help you understand your brain's operating system, whether it’s identifying sensory needs, developing customized coping strategies, or building self-advocacy skills. The work is collaborative and tailored specifically to what makes you, you.

Creating a Safe Space: We explicitly work to create an environment where you feel safe being exactly who you are. You don't have to perform or pretend to be someone you're not. This approach fosters self-acceptance and reduces the shame that often comes with trying to fit into a world built for others.

Join Young Adult Group Therapy

If you're feeling isolated, know that you're not alone. Our young adult group therapy offers a powerful way to connect with peers who are experiencing similar struggles. Our therapy groups provide a supportive community where you can practice social skills, share experiences, and find connection with a supportive group of peers and mental health counselors.

How Group Therapy Helps Young Adults

  • Building Community: A therapy group provides a sense of belonging that is often difficult to find in young adulthood. It’s a space to build connections, learn from each other, and reduce the feelings of isolation that so many young adults face.

  • Shared Learning & Perspectives: In a group, you'll gain new insights from the experiences of others and discover new coping skills you can put into practice. Our trained mental health counselors foster a safe and welcoming space to help you learn from peers and find community.

At Inneractions we have a variety of different therapeutic groups for Young Adults including social skill building groups, process-oriented groups, and tabletop RPG groups.

Our Approach to Young Adult Therapy

Our client-centered model is based on personalized care, using a variety of modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), experiential therapy, and many others. We tailor our approach to your unique goals and needs, putting you at the center of your healing process.
