Nobody Warned You About This Part
Moving out, not moving out. Roommates, rent, first jobs, the friends who seem to be getting ahead, the degree you are not sure you wanted. Tatiana has experience serving transitional aged youth, ages 18 to 24.
Your brain is still finishing its development into your mid-twenties, particularly the parts that plan and weigh consequences. That helps explain a lot, and it means skills you build now can go a long way.
A transition into adult roles can involve several decisions at once: work, education, money, relationships, and where you want to live. You may feel capable in one area and uncertain in another. Consider the decision that feels most immediate and what makes it difficult to move forward. Is the obstacle missing information, competing priorities, another person's expectations, or fear of choosing incorrectly? Those are different conversations. You do not need a complete plan for your future to ask about support with the next step. Availability and the fit of this proposed audience page should be confirmed directly with the practice.
A first discussion can include the practical conditions around a choice, not just how you feel about it. You might be sharing housing, relying on family support, or balancing several roles. Ask how the available service could address your priorities and what scheduling or privacy questions need to be resolved. If you are considering telehealth, discuss a suitable private location and the practice’s requirements. A dorm room or shared space should not automatically be assumed appropriate.

Your Call
The Faith You Grew Up With
Some young adults want to deepen the faith they were raised in. Others are questioning it, or have left. You can bring any of that to Tatiana, or leave it out. Biblical principles come in per client preference.

Things You May Be Wondering
I am on my parents' insurance. Will they see this?
They may see an explanation of benefits. Ask your insurer about confidential communication requests, and talk it over with us.
Is it okay that I do not have a big problem?
Yes. You do not have to wait for a crisis.
