College and young adulthood are filled with transitions, new environments, shifting friendships, academic pressures, career decisions, and questions about identity. While these years are often described as “the best time of your life,” the reality can feel much different. The weight of expectations, uncertainty about the future, and the stress of balancing independence with responsibility can be exhausting.
According to the American College Health Association, more than 60% of college students report experiencing overwhelming anxiety, and nearly 40% struggle with depression. These statistics show that you are not alone, many young adults find this stage of life challenging.
At (Re)Connect in Towson, MD, we believe therapy can provide a safe space to navigate these transitions. Our work is about helping you manage stress, clarify your goals, and feel more grounded as you move through this season of life.
How can therapy help with college stress or major transitions?
Life as a college student or young adult can bring unique challenges. You may notice yourself:
Feeling anxious about academics, relationships, or the future
Struggling to adjust to a new environment or away from home
Experiencing loneliness, homesickness, or social pressures
Having trouble balancing independence with expectations from family
Feeling uncertain about your identity, career path, or relationships
Using substances, overworking, or other coping tools to manage stress
These experiences don’t mean you’re failing, they’re signs that you’re carrying a lot while trying to find your way. Therapy can help you create space to process, cope, and grow.
Signs That Life Changes Are Affecting You
Do you offer support for social or identity challenges?
Yes. We work with young adults exploring identity, belonging, and relationships. Therapy provides a supportive space to understand who you are, strengthen boundaries, and navigate social pressures or relational patterns with greater clarity and self-acceptance.
If you’re here, it’s likely because you’ve realized something needs to change. Deep down, you’re ready to find clarity, build confidence, and reconnect with yourself and the people around you in healthier, more authentic ways.
How Young Adult Therapy Works Here
-
Therapy begins with an intake session where we learn about the life changes, stressors, and challenges you’re facing. This helps us understand what’s feeling most overwhelming and what support would be most helpful right now.
-
Together, we explore your history, coping strategies, and emotional patterns to identify what’s contributing to stress, anxiety, or disconnection. This phase helps clarify goals and guide the therapeutic approach.
-
In sessions, we focus on processing the emotional impact of transitions such as college changes, early career pressures, shifting relationships, or identity questions. We work experientially and at a pace that supports emotional safety and insight.
-
As therapy progresses, we build practical skills for managing stress, regulating emotions, navigating relationships, and making decisions with greater confidence. These tools support resilience and balance in daily life.
-
We help you integrate insights and skills into everyday life strengthening self-awareness, relationships, and coping strategies so changes feel sustainable as you move forward.
At (Re)Connect, we offer a space that is compassionate and supportive while also inviting growth. Our team has extensive experience in trauma recovery, addiction services, and relational therapy, which allows us to address not just the symptoms of trauma but its impact on your relationships.
We use experiential and attachment-based therapies that go beyond traditional talk therapy. Whether you come to us for individual therapy, couples therapy, or intensives, we’ll help you create a sense of safety and trust, while also encouraging the kind of change that lasts.
