What are life transitions?

Life transitions are significant changes that shift your identity, routine, or circumstances. These can include starting or ending relationships, becoming a parent, changing careers, moving to a new city, experiencing loss, or entering a new life stage. Even positive transitions can be challenging as you adjust to a new normal.

How can therapy help with life transitions?

Therapy provides a space to process the emotions that come with change—grief for what's ending, anxiety about what's ahead, or confusion about your identity in a new role. A therapist can help you clarify your values, work through uncertainty, and build resilience as you navigate the transition.

What should I expect when working on life transitions in therapy?

Your therapist will explore what the transition means for you and how it's affecting different areas of your life. Sessions may involve processing feelings about the change, identifying what you need to move forward, and developing strategies for managing stress during uncertain times. The pace will match where you are in the process.
