Rose Snyder, EdM, PsyD, LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
Working with clients during big life transitions is a particularly fruitful time. I bring in multiple approaches to help in transitions, including coping skills, insight-oriented work, steady support in our therapeutic relationship, and nervous system regulation techniques for stabilization. Life transitions can be wonderful opportunities for growth, even if they can be rocky in the process. I view myself somewhat as a midwife through the experience, helping guide you and encourage you as you birth into your next chapter.

Sandy Kong
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 119380
Life transitions therapy is a specialized form of counseling designed to help individuals navigate significant, often stressful, life changes—such as career shifts, divorce, loss, or aging—by providing coping skills, emotional support, and strategies to manage anxiety. It focuses on navigating uncertainty, processing grief or loss, and rebuilding a sense of identity. Therapy can help by: Offering a safe space to process and validate feelings of sadness, fear, or anxiety related to change; teach practical tools to handle and cope with stress caused by the changes, such as grounding techniques and mindfulness; identifies strengths by redefining personal identity and purpose, and transforming challenging transitions into growth opportunities.

Ben Leddick
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Uncertainty and not knowing what will happen can be scary. Often times individuals will either escape through avoidance or numbing out, or they will control as much of life as they can to prevent uncertainty. However, a reality of life is that things will change and you will face challenges. What you get to control is how you respond to those changes.

Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Life transitions often hold both possibility and uncertainty, growth and grief, excitement and disorientation. Whether navigating career changes, relationship shifts, parenthood, neurodivergent discovery, disability, chronic illness, identity exploration, aging, relocation, caregiving, spiritual shifts, educational transitions, retirement, or major life decisions, periods of change can invite us to reconsider who we are, what matters, and how we want to move through the world.
Transitions are not only practical experiences. They are often nervous system experiences, identity experiences, relational experiences, and sometimes deeply emotional or existential ones. Even changes that are welcomed or chosen can bring loss, complexity, ambiguity, and unexpected challenges alongside hope, relief, and possibility.
This work creates space to make sense of change at a pace that honors your capacity, pace, and lived experience. Exploration may include emerging identities, shifting roles, changing relationships, questions of belonging, evolving values, grief for what is ending, and uncertainty about what comes next. Particular attention is given to the ways culture, family expectations, neurodivergence, disability, chronic illness, spirituality, and other intersecting identities shape how transitions are experienced and navigated.
My approach integrates mindfulness, somatic therapy, EMDR, parts work, neuropsychotherapy, expressive arts, and liberation-oriented healing to support greater self-understanding, nervous system regulation, flexibility, and self-trust during times of change. Rather than rushing toward answers or certainty, therapy offers space to listen for what is emerging, honor what is being left behind, and remain connected to yourself as new possibilities unfold. Often, the work is less about finding the "right" path and more about cultivating the clarity, courage, and self-trust to walk it in a way that feels aligned with your values, needs, and authentic self.

Melanie Simms
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
The transition to adulthood is HARD. I support teenagers and young adults with navigating the unique challenges related to moving from childhood to adulthood. This includes reflecting on one's childhood, healing from traumatic childhood experiences, exploring one's values, and making intentional choices to build the life they want and deserve. Our brains continue developing until our mid-20s and while that might make planning and decision making more difficult during this phase of life, it also means the brain is more elastic and quicker to heal.

Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
Life transitions like divorce or relationship changes, empty nest, career change, relocation, retirement, or big life decisions can leave you feeling isolated, unsure of yourself and anxious. It takes tremendous courage to make a bold change. And no one really knows in advance exactly how it will turn out. As Martin Luther King Jr said, "Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase." Collaborating with a skilled therapist can give you the support you need to find clarity and take wise, well thought through calculated risks that will open up possibilities for you. I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that effectively free you from old patterns, and help you to establish the balanced, happy life you deserve.

Jasmine Wilson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP-IT
Even positive change can feel destabilizing. Whether you’re entering adulthood, becoming a parent, ending a relationship, changing careers, grieving what was, or feeling unsure of what comes next, transitions often stir up anxiety, confusion, and self-doubt.
These seasons can bring old wounds and patterns to the surface, especially when the path ahead feels unclear. Therapy offers a space to slow down, process what’s shifting, and reconnect with your own internal compass. Together, we can help you navigate change with more clarity, steadiness, and trust in yourself.
