Therapy for Life Transitions
Navigating Life Transitions: Support for Your Journey
Life is full of transitions—some we anticipate, like graduating from college or becoming a parent, and others that catch us off guard, such as losing a job or coping with the death of a loved one. Regardless of how they come about, these changes can stir up a whirlwind of emotions, often leading to stress, anxiety, and sadness.
It's natural to feel uncertain during these times. Many of us experience similar feelings when facing significant life changes, including:
- Self-Doubt: Questioning your decisions and abilities.
- Identity Shift: Reevaluating who you are in this new season of life.
- Anxiety About the Future: Worrying about what lies ahead.
- Regret: Reflecting on past choices.
- Overthinking: Ruminating on all the possible paths available to you.
- Existential Concerns: Questioning your purpose and meaning in life.
- Loss of Support: Feeling disconnected from your usual support system.
- Instability: Experiencing a sense of upheaval.
- Practical Changes: Adjusting to new schedules, routines, or financial situations.
- New Roles: Taking on responsibilities that feel overwhelming.
- Emotional Fluctuations: Experiencing excitement alongside self-doubt.
- Decision Fatigue: Longing for clarity in a sea of choices.
I am here to support you through these transitions, providing a safe space to explore your feelings and experiences. My approach incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness practices, and narrative therapy techniques, allowing us to work together to create a path forward.
