Adults

In adulthood there are oftentimes challenges related to marriage or relationship concerns, becoming a new family and raising young children, change in the nature of social relationships and friendships, parenting pre-teens and teenagers, children leaving home, the aging of one's parents, illness, occupational stress and/or loss of job, financial struggles, and other issues pertaining to transition and change. Each of these outward changes or adjustments holds important meanings for the adult individual experiencing them and may present special challenges.
