Life Transitions

“The only thing constant is change.”

~ Heraclitus, Greek philosopher

Has your life been touched by a significant event such as a death, divorce or layoffs at work? Are you having a hard time moving through and past the emotional turmoil? Do you feel completely stuck and like you need guidance getting back on track?

There’s no denying that life often presents us with our fair share of challenges, usually in the form of sudden change. Even positive life transitions can throw us into a tailspin and leave us feeling stressed, confused and vulnerable. But with the right tools and mindset, you have the power to overcome any adversity and transform into a more authentic and confident version of yourself.

Change Can be Beneficial

Change, even difficult change that is neither wanted nor expected, can influence personal growth. With each new challenge, we develop new personal skills and obtain a greater awareness of ourselves, our family and our community.  We become stronger, more confident, and better prepared for what life throws at us next when we successfully navigate change.

Common Life Transitions

Some of the most common life transitions we help clients navigate are:

  • Moving away to college
  • Adjusting to university life or your first professional job
  • Getting married
  • Having a baby
  • Parenting
  • Empty nesting syndrome
  • Breakup, separation or divorce
  • Infidelity recovery
  • Retirement
  • Job loss or significant change in career
  • Relocation
  • Financial gain/loss
  • Serious illness or disability
  • Issues pertaining to aging
  • Death of a loved one
  • Questioning the meaning of life
  • Questioning your faith/spirituality
  • Questioning your sexual/gender identity

Sometimes we can handle change and adversity by ourselves and sometimes we need a little help.  I offer an encouraging environment where you can speak candidly and receive care, compassion and guidance.
