Mary Gonzalez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Life is full of change, and even positive transitions can feel overwhelming. Whether you're starting a new career, ending a relationship, becoming a parent, coping with an empty nest, relocating, retiring, graduating, or navigating another significant life change, transitions often bring uncertainty, stress, grief, and questions about your identity or future.
At Holding Space Therapy, we understand that major life changes can affect your emotional well-being, relationships, confidence, and sense of stability. You may feel anxious about the unknown, overwhelmed by new responsibilities, or find yourself grieving the life you once knew. Therapy provides a supportive space to process these emotions while helping you adapt to change with greater resilience and self-compassion.
Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, EMDR, and trauma-informed care, we'll work together to identify unhelpful thought patterns, strengthen coping skills, regulate difficult emotions, and build confidence as you move through life's transitions. If past experiences or unresolved trauma are making change feel especially difficult, therapy can also help you process those experiences so they no longer hold you back. Our goal is not simply to help you get through change, but to help you grow from it. Together, we'll explore your strengths, clarify your values, establish healthy boundaries, and create practical strategies that support your personal and emotional well-being.

Chris 'Bucky' Bateman
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Major life transitions ; a new marriage, a career change, the loss of a relationship, becoming a parent, or simply the quiet sense that life needs to look different can shake even the most grounded person. Therapy provides a steady space to process what's changing, clarify what you want, and move forward with more intention and confidence. Transitions are hard. They're also an invitation to grow.

Debbie Cherry
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Major transitions can expose relationship patterns that were easier to manage when life was more predictable. Moving in together in San Francisco, relocating to Los Angeles, getting engaged, becoming parents, changing careers, or entering a new stage of marriage can all require couples to renegotiate how they operate as a team. I help couples navigate these transitions intentionally so change becomes an opportunity to strengthen the partnership rather than simply something to survive.

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.

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.

Kristin Robert
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Life transitions can unsettle far more than a schedule or familiar routine; they can disrupt identity, belonging, relationships, and the future you expected to inhabit. Even wanted changes such as marriage, motherhood, graduation, career advancement, or retirement may carry grief alongside possibility, while divorce, loss, relocation, illness, or an empty nest can leave the former version of life suddenly inaccessible. Therapy creates room to honor what the transition has ended, examine what it is asking of you now, and define who you are becoming in its wake.

Annalisa Barrett
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Life transitions such as becoming an adult, getting married, having children and changing careers can be very destabilizing, even when they are events we are looking forward to. Change has a way of illuminating our fears as it presents us with the unknown. Even the discomfort of a life that requires change can feel more tolerable than the uncertainty of what is on the other side of the change. Therapy provides a space to address the fears and to slowly expand our own capacity to grow.
