What We Treat
Life Transitions
A life transition is any change or adjustment that impacts your life in a significant way.
The Only Thing Constant is Change
Where to begin
Life transitions may be big or small, predictable such as moving to a different state or an upcoming marriage, or unpredictable such as the death of a loved one or a sudden job loss.
Transitions that happen without any warning can be especially challenging and at times, also have a component of a trauma response.
Change is often accompanied with stress, and at times will also increase feelings of fear, uncertainty, anxiety and depression.
Life Transitions Include:
- Arrival of a new baby
- Moving
- A new job
- Adjusting to college
- Marriage or a new relationship
- Empty Nesting
- Divorce, separation or a break up
- Retirement or job loss
- Questioning religion or spirituality

Life Transitions
With every life transition, it is common to experience a sense of grief at the loss you are experiencing, even when the life transition is one that you are looking forward to. For everything we gain, something may be left behind. We often use the word bittersweet to describe these kinds of feelings.
We all experience life transitions, some are much more difficult than others. Transitions are often life’s way of asking us to reexamine our present way of being and force us to develop and grow as individuals. We know that change is an inevitable part of life, but simply knowing that doesn’t always make it comfortable.
At times we struggle because our reality does not match our expectations of how we thought things would be. We will help you to manage these transitions with effective tools.
