Faith Forum with Meg Jay: The Twenty-Something Treatment

There is a young adult mental health crisis in America. So many 20-somethings are struggling — especially with anxiety, depression, and substance use — yet, as a culture, we are not sure what to do about it. Meg Jay and The Reverend Elizabeth Walker will discuss why the 20’s are the most challenging time of life and essential skills for handling the uncertainties surrounding work, love, friendship, mental health, and more during that decade and beyond.

Meg Jay, PhD, is a developmental clinical psychologist who specializes in twentysomethings. She is the author of The Twentysomething Treatment: A Revolutionary Remedy for an Uncertain Age, the cult classic The Defining Decade: Why Your Twenties Matter and How to Make the Most of Them Now, and Supernormal: The Secret World of the Family Hero. Her books have been translated into more than a dozen languages and her work has appeared in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Harvard Business Review, and on NPR, BBC, and – maybe most important for her audience – TikTok.
