Therapy for College Students and Young Adults Los Angeles
“The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.”
— Carl Jung
Welcome to Sophie Pierce, Psy.D., where we support college students and young adults navigating the transitions and pressures of early adulthood.
You might find yourself here because you—or someone you love— is struggling with the transition into adulthood. Perhaps you’re feeling lost, anxious, or unsure of your next steps. Maybe college life, relationships, or new responsibilities feel overwhelming, or you’re noticing increased stress, perfectionism, or self-doubt.
We understand how challenging this stage of life can be — balancing independence, identity, and uncertainty. We’re here to help you find your footing and feel more grounded in who you are and where you’re headed.
If you’re ready to feel more confident, connected, and at ease, schedule a complimentary consultation with us today.
Meet Glory Finnegan, Psy.D. — Therapist for College Students and Young Adults
Glory is passionate about helping “anxious achievers”—driven young adults who appear put-together on the outside but often feel exhausted, self-critical, or unsure of who they are underneath the surface.

Glory offers therapy for college students and young adults throughout California via Telehealth.
If you’re ready to find support, schedule a complimentary consultation with us today.
Our Approach to Therapy for College Students and Young Adults
Glory’s approach is grounded in authenticity, curiosity, and compassion. She integrates evidence-based methods—including psychodynamic, mindfulness, and emotion-focused therapy—while tailoring sessions to your unique needs and pace.
She believes that real change begins when you feel seen and understood. Through therapy, you’ll learn to tune into your emotions, identify patterns that keep you stuck, and create meaningful shifts toward a more confident and connected sense of self.
What to Expect
During your complimentary phone consultation, we’ll answer any questions and determine if we’re a good fit for therapy.
If we decide to move forward, your therapist will send you intake paperwork and schedule your initial session. The first session will focus on getting to know you — your story, challenges, and goals.
From there, therapy sessions typically occur once a week for 50 minutes. You’ll have a confidential space to explore what’s on your mind, deepen your self-understanding, and learn effective tools for navigating life’s challenges. You can expect that sessions will be filled with warmth, humor, emotional attunement, and honest reflection.
Sessions are held virtually across California to ensure sessions can occur at your convenience and comfort.
If you have any other questions about what therapy may look like for your child, please reach out! We’re happy to help.
