Therapy for Young Adults

It’s tiresome when people in your life are asking “so what’s next for you?” It might feel implied that you’re supposed to have a plan. Instead, you may be struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship stress, loneliness, burnout, family conflict, or feeling completely uncertain about your future.

At Anthology Counseling, we help you navigate life's transitions with support, insight, and practical tools for moving forward.

In person or virtual therapy in Salt Lake City - start today.

When we meet with clients for the first time, we’re often exploring -

  • Feeling behind compared to friends

  • Living with anxiety or depression

  • Constant feelings of stress and overwhelm

  • Relationship patterns that lead to disappointment

  • Navigating a breakup, or deciding “is this what I really want?”

  • Identity exploration - Who am I? When can I show up most authentically?

  • College or career uncertainty

  • Neurodivergence: “Could I have ADHD?”

  • Feeling lonely even when surrounded by others

As you likely know, unlike advice from friends or family, therapy isn’t about telling you what decision to make. People find it to be a place to tune into your own voice, your own thoughts and make decisions based on what will work for you. This phase of life poses unique challenges and many crossroads. It can be a powerful time for you, and for many a stressful time.

Come join us for a deeper dive than what the sound bites on social media are offering you. Our therapists are trained to tailor treatment to who you are as a human. Right now (and really anytime) it’s about building a life that works for you, and is pointed in the direction you’re headed. You might be reflecting on the values or way of life your family did things - and you might decide that’s not for you. But, what is for you?

Build practical skills:

  • Emotional regulation

  • Self Compassion

  • Authenticity

  • Boundaries

Hi there. I specialize in working with young adults (18-27) navigating big life decisions. I'd love to support you. It wasn’t long ago I was reconsidering the career choice I had charted for myself, and asking “do I want to live in my hometown my whole life?” If you are looking for a safe and inclusive environment to explore your identity and relationships, I'd love to help you think and feel your way through.
