young adults (ages 18-24)

counselling support in Edmonton & Sherwood Park

Are you a young adult struggling with…

• difficulty gaining independence from your parents?

• coping with the pressures and demands of post-secondary studies?

• feeling overwhelmed by life as a young adult?

• feeling isolated or lonely?

• having a hard time making new friends?

• deciding what career to choose or finding a job?

• making decisions about your future

• adjusting to life away from home

• having to move back home due to financial or personal issues?

We support young adults with their mental health, life transitions, relationships & pressures of emerging adulthood.

Young adults often struggle with feeling confident and ready to tackle the challenges of the real world. It can help to know that there is some kind of safety net. Young adulthood is a time for creating new things: a new life, a new level of responsibility or sometimes just a new way of seeing yourself. This process takes time, with lots of initial successes mixed with temporary setbacks.

Making this transition with mental health issues may lead to an existing problem getting worse or triggering new problems. The need for support and treatment can be very important, but other factors, such as the stigma attached to mental illness can make it difficult for people to get help.

Thrive Teens offers a safe, supportive and nonjudgmental place for young adults to receive support through both counselling and coaching services.
