Young Adulthood
High school graduation, college admissions, and moving away from home. These are among the stepping-stones that mark the transition from adolescence to adulthood. For some people, this transition can be an awkward one.
During this transition, they may find themselves wanting freedom to pursue academic and career interests outside of the home, while at the same time continuing to rely on parents or caregivers for financial and emotional support. During this time, some parents might project their own hopes and dreams onto their children, coming to believe that they aren't living up to family expectations.
Likewise, a young adult might be ready to leave the family and become independent but may be incapable of doing so due to internal anxieties and fear of the unknown.
As a counselor, how might you support both a young adult and his or her parents/caregivers during this fragile time?
