Therapy for Life Transitions

Change is a natural part of life, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy. Whether it’s starting a new career, moving to a different city, navigating a relationship shift, becoming a parent, or adjusting to an empty nest, life transitions can stir up uncertainty, grief, and self-doubt. Even positive changes can feel overwhelming when they disrupt your sense of stability or identity.

If you’re finding it hard to adjust to a new season of life, therapy can help you move through the discomfort and reconnect with a sense of confidence and purpose.

Understanding Life Transitions

Life transitions can take many forms, some expected and others sudden. You might be facing:

  • A career change, graduation, or retirement

  • Marriage, divorce, or the end of a relationship

  • Parenthood, fertility challenges, or loss

  • Relocation or cultural adjustment

  • Health changes for yourself or a loved one

  • Identity exploration or shifts in values and priorities

These experiences often bring up feelings of anxiety, sadness, confusion, or self-criticism. It’s common to wonder who you are now or where you’re headed next.

How Therapy Can Help

In our work together, we’ll create a supportive space to slow down and make sense of what you’re feeling. My approach focuses on helping you:

  • Process the emotions that come with change, including grief, fear, excitement, or uncertainty

  • Identify what feels most important to you in this new phase

  • Strengthen your coping tools and inner resilience

  • Reconnect with your sense of identity and direction

  • Build self-compassion as you navigate the unknown

Therapy for life transitions isn’t just about getting through a difficult time. It’s about helping you grow into a new version of yourself with clarity and confidence.

My Approach

I use a combination of evidence-based methods such as person-centered therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness to help you move through old patterns, calm your nervous system, and create space for new possibilities. Every session is tailored to your pace and needs, whether you’re processing a major loss or simply feeling stuck in the middle of change.
