Being a young adult is hard. There’s the pressure of leaving home, relationships, money, and future plans. The good news is you don’t have to handle it alone. Therapy gives you a private space to vent, process, and learn practical tools for stress, anxiety, burnout, or other struggles. It helps you build lasting coping skills like setting boundaries, managing time and emotions, improving relationships, and handling setbacks with more confidence. It’s for growth as well as crisis. A steady, unbiased clinician can make a big difference while you navigate independence and identity. Investing in mental health now boosts balance, focus, and resilience during the transition to adulthood and beyond.

Therapy can help you:

Develop coping strategies to help manage stress

Making therapy easy for you

  • Insurance can feel confusing, especially if you’re using it on your own for the first time—but it doesn’t have to be overwhelming. In simple terms, insurance helps cover part (or sometimes most) of the cost of therapy. Depending on your plan, you may pay a copay (a set amount per session) or work toward a deductible before coverage kicks in. Many college students are covered under a parent or guardian’s plan, and therapy sessions are still confidential. Our team can help verify your benefits and explain exactly what your sessions will cost before you start, so there are no surprises—just support. If you have any questions along the way, we are more than happy to help!

  • The tools you gain in therapy don’t stop being useful after graduation. Skills like coping with stress, managing emotions, and building healthy relationships can support you in your career, friendships, and personal life long-term.

  • College stress is real, and you don’t have to wait until things feel unmanageable to seek therapy. Feeling constantly overwhelmed, anxious, burnt out, lonely, or emotionally drained are all signs that extra support could help. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” yourself—it’s about giving yourself space to breathe and process what’s going on.

  • Between classes, work, and social commitments, scheduling can feel overwhelming. Telehealth therapy makes consistency easier by allowing you to meet with a therapist from wherever you’re most comfortable. Prioritizing your mental health doesn’t have to disrupt your routine—it can fit into it.
