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.

However, the goal should always be to bring about some positive change within you. Ther...

My client specialties include LGBTQIA+, kink, artistic, and/or spiritual individuals who struggle with depression, anxiety, or relationships. I see anxiety and depression as myths and faulty narratives that we tell ourselves. They can frequently feel comforting, but they usually cause us significant challenges.

Working in education for over 10 years has given me a great gift. I have been able to access diverse populations, ages and needs. Working with children and adolescence is absolutely life-giving. I believe behavior is a form of communication, that ultimately children want to do well, but sometimes they lack the self-awareness and skill necessary to thrive. I am honored to get to be the one to...
