Why the Traditional Milestones of Adulthood May No Longer Apply

What you need to know about the shifting benchmarks of “emerging adulthood”

a young man with a lot on his minda young man with a lot on his mindYou just wrapped up a session with your 20-something client, and you’re trying to make sense of what they’re bringing to therapy . . .

  • They have a good job and feel financially independent, yet they live with their parents and don’t feel particularly motivated to move out
  • They’re lonely and want deeper connections, but the thought of meeting new people feels like too much
  • They’ve moved past many of their adolescent struggles, but they still don’t “feel like an adult”
  • They’re confident in themselves, but they have a nagging feeling of unease about society and the future

These kinds of contradictions can be common among “emerging adults” (ages 18-29), and they can make therapy feel like you’re aiming at a moving target.

What’s more, the tools that work well with teens or older adults don’t always land with this middle group.

That’s why we partnered with Jeffrey Arnett, PhD to bring you an all-new workshop. It’s designed to help you better understand the unique challenges of emerging adulthood, so that you can work more effectively with clients in this age group.

— New Short Course —

Working with Emerging Adults: Key Factors That Can Impact Treatment

In this workshop, Dr. Arnett will give you a new lens for looking at clients between the ages of 18-29 – one that can help you craft more targeted interventions without inadvertently adding to the pressure they already feel to reach adulthood.

Here’s the agenda:

  • Why interventions designed for adolescents or adults can fall flat (or backfire) with emerging adults (ages 18-29)
  • Five unique features of emerging adults (and the impact of each on mental wellbeing)
  • How much does social media actually contribute to emerging adults’ struggles?
  • Why emerging adults have been slower than every other group to bounce back from anxiety and depression post-pandemic
  • Advantages and disadvantages of entering adulthood later in life
  • The unique challenges that parents of emerging adults encounter

The live workshop will take place on Thursday, January 15th from 1-4pm ET (US).

Jeffrey will take questions periodically throughout.

In addition, your registration includes the video recording and transcript of the presentation (and both are yours to keep forever).

  • The transcript makes it easy to go back and double check concepts, citations and names that are mentioned
  • We put in a table of contents to make it easy for you to find the exact part of the webinar you need
  • Having the concepts already written allows you to take notes on how you’re going to use the ideas rather than transcribing the ideas
  • Some people simply learn better by reading than by listening or watching
  • You will be able to print out and share techniques presented in the session with your patients
