Life transitions—whether planned or unexpected—can bring about a mix of excitement, uncertainty, and stress. You may be adjusting to a new role, such as becoming a parent, changing careers, retiring, moving to a new place, or navigating the end of a relationship. Even positive changes can bring about feelings of loss, fear, or overwhelm. It’s normal to feel unsteady or uncertain during times of change, and seeking support is a healthy way to navigate these shifts.
Transitions often trigger a range of emotions and can affect one’s sense of identity, security, and purpose. While some individuals adapt smoothly to new circumstances, others may struggle with the loss of familiar routines or fear of the unknown. Life transitions can also stir up unresolved issues from the past, further complicating adjustment. Understanding that these responses are natural and that adapting to change takes time can be helpful in reducing anxiety or self-criticism.

We will work together to identify your strengths, set realistic goals, and develop coping strategies to manage stress and uncertainty. We will focus on building resilience and self-awareness. With time, you’ll find yourself more equipped to embrace new beginnings, rediscover stability, and create a path that aligns with your values and goals.
