Rewilding Earth & Psyche - Tyler Mostul, MSN
Life Coach, Earth-Based Depth Coach, Master's in Nursing - Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing
Life transitions are often great opportunities for growth and transformation. We usually have to be willing to take great risks and face our fears in order to experience the gifts of the transition. Too often these opportunities are wasted, and a person ends up changing only superficially while the roots stay the same. One focus of my work is helping people to transform at a deep level during a transition.

Danielle Esses

Periods of change—even positive ones—can bring uncertainty, anxiety, or a sense of losing your footing. Therapy focuses on helping you make sense of what’s shifting, stay grounded through the transition, and move forward in a way that feels intentional rather than reactive.

Sarah Jane Thomas
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Growth rarely happens on a perfect schedule, especially when you are dealing with career changes, family expectations, or losing people and places that used to make sense of your world. Maybe you are stepping into a new role as a caregiver, letting go of friendships that no longer fit, or trying to find your footing after a big move or loss. These moments can leave you feeling untethered or unsure of who you are supposed to be right now. We will sit with those messy feelings together, honoring the parts of your life that are ending while gently helping you build a way forward that actually fits your values. You do not have to figure it all out on your own before you start this work.

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.

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.

Cindy Lee Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
I work with adults navigating major life transitions, including relationship changes, divorce or separation, career shifts, relocation, identity changes, and periods of uncertainty or loss. Even when transitions are expected or chosen, they can bring up anxiety, grief, self-doubt, and a loss of stability or direction.
My approach helps you move through these periods with greater clarity and emotional grounding. Rather than focusing only on decision-making or problem-solving, we also explore the emotional and nervous system responses that often accompany change, including fear, overwhelm, or feeling stuck between what was and what comes next.
I use a trauma-informed framework and may incorporate EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and the Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM) when past experiences are activated during transitions or when change is connected to earlier attachment or trauma patterns. These modalities help reduce emotional intensity and support greater internal stability during times of disruption.
I also integrate nervous system regulation and attachment-focused work, which can be especially helpful when transitions activate old patterns such as people-pleasing, avoidance, or difficulty trusting your own decisions. Therapy is paced to match your needs, with a focus on helping you feel more grounded and self-directed.
Clients often find that as they move through life transitions with support, they gain not only clarity about external decisions, but also a stronger internal sense of confidence, resilience, and direction.

Dr. Michael Marossy
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Major life transitions can create uncertainty, emotional stress, and a loss of stability even when the changes themselves are positive or expected. Transitions related to career changes, relationships, marriage, parenthood, relocation, identity development, spiritual change, aging, or shifting life roles can leave people feeling overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, or uncertain about who they are and how to move forward.
Therapy can provide support and clarity during periods of transition by helping clients process difficult emotions, navigate uncertainty, strengthen coping skills, and better understand the deeper personal and relational themes emerging during times of change. My approach focuses on helping clients move through transitions with greater self-awareness, resilience, and intentionality.

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.

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.

Allie Michie, MS
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT159347
Some transitions are chosen and some arrive uninvited, but both can leave you feeling unsteady, unsure of who you are on the other side. I work with people navigating all kinds of change, career shifts, relationship changes, moves, loss, new parenthood, and more, with curiosity and without judgment.

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.

Irvine is one of the wealthiest and most planned cities in the United States — anchored by UC Irvine and home to the regional headquarters of dozens of major corporations — with a therapy community shaped by the intersection of high-achievement academic culture, tech and finance sector burnout, and a large East Asian population that brings distinct cultural dimensions to help-seeking and mental health. The city's majority-minority population — with Chinese, Korean, Indian, and Iranian communities among the most prominent — drives strong demand for multilingual therapists who can work across multiple cultural frameworks. Hoag Hospital and the UCI Health system provide institutional mental health resources, with a well-established private practice community serving Irvine's planned residential villages. UCI's clinical psychology training program supplies a significant number of therapists to the broader Orange County ecosystem.
