About Us: Therapy for Young Adults Adjustment Disorder
Our Journey Begins
Founded in 2017, Therapy for Young Adults Adjustment Disorder (TYAAD) was born out of a recognized need for comprehensive and accessible information on a pressing mental health topic: adjustment disorder in young adults. We launched with the vision to become a trusted online resource, empowering young adults and their supporters to navigate this often-misunderstood condition.
Our Mission and Purpose
Our mission is simple yet powerful: to shed light on adjustment disorders, provide support, and foster understanding within the young adult community. We strive to bridge the information gap by offering unbiased, evidence-based resources that empower individuals affected by this disorder to seek help and improve their lives.
Core Values:
