Is adulthood defined by independence, a stable career, marriage, or parenthood? In the digital age―particularly in Western societies―the traditional markers of adulthood have been increasingly postponed and redefined. Enter the concept of emerging adulthood, a period characterized by role exploration, instability, self-focus, and wide-open possibilities. Although researchers have defined this stage as the period between ages 18 and 29 years, this new volume posits that it is most useful to examine late adolescence (ages 18-23) and emerging adulthood (ages 24-29) separately, given the differences in developmental capacities, tasks, achievements, and attitudes. With case vignettes, videos, and key points for each chapter that aid in quick reference, Emerging Adulthood: A Psychodynamic Approach to the New Developmental Phase of the 21st Century examines the process of identity formation; the role of youth culture in aiding individuation from family of origin; the distinction between typical emotional reactions and behaviors and those that require mental health interventions; and a diverse range of treatment modalities. Whether still in training or actively practicing, mental health clinicians will come away with a deeper understanding of the interface of culture, development, and individual psychology during these vibrant life phases.
