Becoming an adolescent and/or young adult can be all-encompassing; empowering with newly found independence, exciting with new opportunities and future goals, yet stressful and challenging with varying distractions and pressures. 

Challenges may arise with relationships with friends, school, and family that can create a negative impact on one's being.

An adolescent and/or young adult may encounter any of the following:

• Lack of Self-Worth & Confidence

• Negative Body Image

• Challenging Relationships with Others

• Bullying

• Online Internet Safety Concerns

• Self-Harm & Suicidal Ideation

• Substance Use

• Performance Anxiety

• Mood Changes 

• Sexuality Exploration 

• Post Secondary Pressures

• Difficulties with Decision Making

Counselling aims to provide a safe and comfortable place to explore and discuss any of these concerns while creating individualized strategies and tools to navigate them.
