Life Transitions
Therapy for Young Adults
Other people may assume you should already know what comes next. You may be making decisions about work, study, relationships, or where to live while feeling less certain than you look. Marie works with young adults who want a practical place to think through those pressures.

Start With the Current Pressure
You do not need a complete plan for your life to make therapy useful. You might want help with a recurring anxious thought, a difficult relationship, or a routine that has become hard to maintain. Name what is getting in the way this week.
Sort Expectations From Preferences
A decision can feel crowded with advice from family, peers, and social media. Therapy can help you examine which expectations you share and which you are following automatically. That does not mean ignoring practical constraints; it means making those constraints visible alongside your own priorities.
Work With Specific Examples
A conversation you avoid, a deadline you keep moving, or an argument you replay can be a useful starting point. Marie’s CBT approach connects thoughts, feelings, and responses to everyday situations. The work should be collaborative, with room to question what is and is not helping.
Get the Practical Details
Individual sessions are $200 for 50 minutes. Ask about current availability, payment arrangements, and the appropriate format for your location. The free 15-minute consultation provides a first conversation about fit without requiring a commitment to ongoing sessions.
Questions You May Have
Do I need to be in a crisis?
No. You can ask about therapy when a pattern or decision is affecting daily life.
Can therapy decide my career or relationship for me?
The aim is to explore your choices and concerns, not hand over decisions about your life.
