Navigate Life’s Transitions with Clarity & Confidence

Navigating Major Life Transitions, Coping with Overwhelm & External Stressors.

  • Feeling stuck and anxious about a career change, promotion, or lack of direction.
  • Struggling with the complex decisions and emotions of family planning, fertility, or becoming a parent.
  • Feeling lost and unmoored while coping with grief, a significant loss, or a divorce.
  • Paralyzing anxiety about finances and debt, lying awake at night terrified about making rent, paying bills, or having nowhere to live.
  • Feeling deeply isolated or disconnected from others, craving meaningful connection but not knowing how to find it.

Understanding the Jargon (What’s Actually Happening?)

In clinical terms, we might be working with:

  • Adjustment Disorders: Difficulty coping with a significant life change, even a positive one.
  • Anxiety & Depression: Often manifesting as burnout, irritability, and exhaustion in adults. This can be a normal response to abnormal levels of stress, like financial insecurity.
  • Grief & Loss: The multifaceted process of adjusting to life after any major loss, including the loss of financial stability.
  • Relational Dynamics: Understanding the patterns you repeat in relationships and where they come from.
  • Stress Management & Burnout: The impact of prolonged stress on your mind and body.

How We Deal With It in Therapy Together:

My approach is practical, insightful, and focused on helping you build a more manageable and meaningful life.

  • Processing Transition & Change: We’ll work to navigate ambivalence, reduce anxiety about the future, and help you redefine your identity during times of shift.
  • Developing Coping Tools: Using modalities like CBT and ACT, we’ll equip you with strategies to manage anxiety, quiet your inner critic, and tolerate distress.
  • Treating Burnout & Fatigue: We’ll focus on recovery from work-related stress, setting sustainable boundaries, and rediscovering balance.
  • Addressing Financial Anxiety: We’ll work to manage the intense fear and overwhelm triggered by very real financial stress and debt, developing coping strategies to reduce its power over your mental health.
  • Improving Relationships: We’ll identify unconscious patterns and build skills for communication and connection to reduce isolation.
  • Building a Values-Driven Life: Moving beyond just reducing symptoms to help you align your daily life with what truly matters to you.
