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.

Liza Roth, MA, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
When we're young, we think of life transitions as exciting... uncharted terrain. It's not until we are in them that we realize they can be difficult and disorienting. Life as we knew it is changing and sometimes we're so busy with the logistics of the transition that rarely do we sit and feel the emotions that go along with this big shift as it's happening. Let me help you process what's happening so you can make sense of the changes to come.

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.

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.

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.

Jaclyn Epstein-Calvert
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Life transitions can bring both opportunity and uncertainty. I work with adults and parents who are navigating major changes such as becoming a parent, shifts in relationships, career changes, relocation, or other periods of personal growth and adjustment. Even positive changes can create stress, self-doubt, or a sense of feeling ungrounded.
In therapy, we create space to slow down and make sense of these transitions. My approach integrates relational and neuroscience-informed perspectives to help clients better understand their emotional responses, clarify what matters most to them, and move through change with greater confidence and self-understanding. Together, we work to build resilience and support clients in navigating new chapters in a way that feels authentic and aligned with their values.
