During my placement, I worked with 16-22 year old students who were navigating issues like anxiety, depression, childhood trauma, bereavement, sexuality, gender identity, and low self-worth. Understanding the unique pressures and uncertainties young adults face such as identity struggles, academic stress, and social challenges I was able to meet them where they were, creating a comfortable, non-judgmental space, building trust by showing genuine empathy and offering support tailored to their specific needs, helping them feel heard and understood.
