Dr. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults navigate life transitions with greater confidence, resilience, and clarity. Major changes such as career shifts, relationship changes, marriage, divorce, parenthood, infertility, relocation, retirement, health concerns, and other significant life events can bring uncertainty, stress, and emotional challenges. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based strategies, I help clients adapt to change, manage anxiety and self-doubt, strengthen coping skills, and reconnect with their values and goals. My goal is to help clients successfully navigate life's transitions while building a meaningful and fulfilling future.

Even good change can knock you off balance. A move, a new role, becoming a parent, a relationship beginning or ending, our therapists help you steady yourself through transition, make sense of the identity shifts that come with it, and step into what's next with more clarity.

Alyssa Smyth
Psychologist, PhD
Periods of life transition can leave even confident people feeling uncertain about what comes next. Changes in career, relationships, identity, or major life roles often bring both opportunity and emotional strain. In therapy, I help clients think clearly through transitions, process the stress of change, and move forward with greater confidence and stability.

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.

Dr. Kimberly E. Johnson
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, APIT
Life is a series of changes, so good, some bad. Resiliency and flexibility are critical tools to help us navigate through. Change your perspective to see all the options before you. I help people persevere through "adulting", getting the first professional job, relationships, marriage, divorce, grief and loss and any other life transition. Your role in the family, at work, relationships and life also may need to change to achieve the balance and support you deserve. "We train people how to treat us." Sometimes we need to also train ourselves to become what we should be.

Life is full of transitions. Whether we are graduating from college, becoming a parent for the first time, getting married, entering midlife, we can count on transitions and that our identity will shift as our life does. Therapy can provide tremendous support as we move through a transition.

Jason Holland

Life transitions can shake your routines, relationships, and sense of direction, even when the change is positive. We can focus on coping and practical adjustment while also making room for the deeper questions that often come up during change. I help people clarify what matters now, make decisions with more confidence, and move forward in a way that feels grounded and meaningful.

Pattie Vargas
Counselor/Therapist, CBC®️Certified Provider, Kessler Certified Grief Educator
Life transitions can be a catalyst for new growth or can leave us stuck in paralysis while we grieve all we are leaving behind. The end of a marriage, losing ground in your career, moving from a familiar hometown can all leave us feeling untethered and unable to find our way. Even the most accomplished and confident person can find themselves at a loss when all the recognizable signposts have been moved. During our time together, we can identify both the sorrow in moving forward and the new opportunities that may present themselves in disguise!

Jessica Anderson, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
Feeling like you always have to get everything “just right” can be exhausting. Perfectionism often leads to stress, procrastination, and fear of making mistakes, even when you’re capable and driven. My focus centers around teaching individuals how to manage high expectations, reduce self-criticism, and build confidence in their efforts, not just the outcome.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people whose lives have been disrupted or reshaped in ways that ask real questions about who they are now. This might include graduating and stepping into adult life, feeling unsure about next steps in a demanding career, becoming a parent or adding a child, separation or divorce, major shifts in important relationships, retirement, moves that change your community, health changes, or later‑life questions about how you want to live the time ahead. Even wanted or carefully planned changes can feel disorienting. You might notice old patterns resurfacing, feel pulled between different parts of yourself, or find that what used to motivate you no longer does. People around you may expect you to be excited, grateful, or to “figure it out,” while inside you feel unsettled, numb, or unsure which way to go. In our work together, we focus on helping your nervous system and daily life stabilize enough to move through this transition, while also exploring the deeper questions of meaning, purpose, and identity that it brings up. We pay attention to what is ending, what is beginning, and what feels most true for you now, so the change you are living through can become more grounded and more aligned with a life that actually fits you.

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.
