Season 2, Episode 7 Millennial Therapist: What are the Unique Struggles of Today's Young Adults

Published: April 1, 2022, 10 a.m.

Today Ellen and Denise  welcome Tess Brigham, a licensed psychotherapist, life coach and former twenty-something.  In a recent article from CNBC Tess says: “Over a decade ago, when I first became a therapist, I never expected that five years later, my practice would consist of nearly 90% millennials, with the rest of my patients being parents of millennials.”  So she’s got both sides of the story for us. 

Tess has been featured in major media throughout the US  - from the New York Times to O Magazine.  So, we are pretty excited to have her with us today.

In that recent CNBC article, she says that the number one complaint parents have about their adult kids is money.  With that lead, we thought we’d challenge Tess with helping us with constructive strategies for the TOP 10 issues between adult kids and their parents. 

Listen to hear what she says.  We talk about:

  • How she became a millennial therapist
  • Social Media:  Keeping up with the Jones'
  • How are millennials different from our generation
  • What is it about this generation that no other generation has experienced before?
  • Why is this stage of emerging adults so difficult?
