Life Transitions
Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Life transitions can place unexpected stress on even the strongest relationships. Changes such as marriage, parenthood, career shifts, relocation, grief, caregiving, retirement, or changes in identity and priorities can impact communication, emotional connection, and daily routines. Gottman Method couples therapy helps partners navigate these transitions together by actively guiding conversations into deeper understanding of each partner's dreams to create a shared dream and direction. Through evidence-based tools and guided conversations, couples learn how to manage stress more effectively, strengthen emotional intimacy, and adapt to change while staying connected as a team.
The most common life transition that I help couples navigate is the "empty nest." Many people find themselves lonely and resentful at this stage of life and come into therapy to find themselves, their partner, and a new dream of a life together.

Life Transitions
Dr. Pam Heilman
Psychologist, Psy.D., LCP
Life transitions such as graduating from college, getting married, having children, relationship changes, and retirement can often be full of a mixture of emotions like excitement, sadness, grief, and loss. Going through these changes can also result in feeling isolated from others because they may not understand how you are feeling. It is common to experience a wide range of emotions with any life change whether it is viewed as something positive or negative. As someone who has worked with many people going through significant life changes, I would be honored to help you navigate this change in your life.

I incorporate CBT and ACT-based approaches to help you stay grounded during times of change while moving forward with greater clarity and intention.

Anne Zakaras
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C
Change—even when it is chosen or positive—can completely disrupt our sense of stability, leaving us feeling untethered, anxious, or unsure of who we are anymore. Anne provides a warm, open, and collaborative space to help you safely ground yourself during periods of significant life transition. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, she partners with individuals to navigate the shifting landscapes of identity, routine, and expectation, helping them move through uncertainty with clarity and confidence.
Anne’s integrative approach is uniquely designed for seasons of change. By combining traditional talk therapy with Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and creative art therapy, she helps clients process complex emotions that are often hard to articulate. Whether you are navigating the profound shift into parenthood (maternal, paternal, or parental mental health), weathering a new medical diagnosis, processing deep grief and bereavement, or restructuring your life after professional burnout or a career pivot, Anne will help you build practical coping strategies to bridge the gap between where you’ve been and where you are going.

Together, we’ll work toward helping you feel more grounded and able to navigate transitions with greater confidence and direction.

Life Transitions
Michael Losoff
Psychologist, PhD
One of Michael's specialties is helping people navigate the often "neither here nor there" psychological and emotional space in which important transitions take place. This can be a concrete transition, such as going to college/seeing children off to college, changing jobs, moving, formalizing a relationship's beginning or end, or having children. It can also be a less well defined but no less powerful transition, such as moving into your mid 30's, reaching mid-life, approaching retirement or just realizing that something different is desired. Michael approaches these transitional moments with the client, turning to the therapy relationship to identify how a transition can lead to growth and even to transformation.

Rachel Honaker, Depth Counseling Services
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Life automatically comes equipped with transitions. Yet, because of our story and experiences some become more challenging. Sometimes they feel impossible. Sometimes we have no choice in them. Whatever the transition or change, making time and space to examine and explore the roots of our fears and anxieties can help us unravel them to the point where we can enact emotional change or acceptance.
