The adage that “the only constant in life is change” is true for people experiencing life transitions. Some life transitions can be exciting, such as a new relationship, move, job, or child. Some can be difficult, like death, illness, or aging. Regardless of the nature of the change, life transitions can be stressful.
Available Treatment Options
Counseling interventions therapists may use for dealing with life transitions include talking about and processing the change, developing coping skills for handling the stress of the change, and participating in group therapy with people going through similar life transitions.

I have enjoyed working with clients of all ages, but only work with adults at this time. Often, a client has come in because they have felt depressed, anxious, have poor self-esteem, or are having difficult relationships. Others have struggled with trauma and are looking to find meaning and relief. Together, we usually start with an initial evaluation in which we explore symptoms, issues, and...

Being a parent is one of the most challenging, yet rewarding roles we enter into with little to no training or education, other than what we have observed growing up. Often as parents we feel pressure that we should know how to handle any challenges we encounter along the way and be successful in each moment. This is a huge expectation we put on ourselves as parents and absolutely not realistic...

I value my clients as individuals, and know that at some time or other most people need a little assistance to overcome life's challenges.

I get it! Your most precious resources, (time, money and attention) are already stretched thin and you're not sure how talking to someone will help. For many, considering therapy brings up worries about inadequacy, fear of judgement, or worse...that it means you're crazy! Because I'm professional, I'll say, "That's non-sense"!! Once we know each other a bit better, I might choose a more casual ...
