Are you a college or university student struggling with life changes and decisions?

Students in their undergraduate and graduate years face many challenges. This can often be a stressful time as students struggle with balancing their grades, internships, and social lives while making decisions about their majors, degree pursuals, and careers. It is also a time when many people form long-term friendships and romantic relationships. This transitional period from student to adulthood can feel like a burden and might be difficult to navigate.

• Financial and lifestyle changes as they emerge into adulthood
• Rejection from programs, graduate schools, and jobs
• Time management and organizational skills
• Self-esteem issues and loneliness

These challenges can feel overwhelming and unmanageable. However, there are many ways to both overcome these adversities and grow from them in the process, cultivating mental tools that will help you deal with future struggles.
