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.
