JAMES COLVIN
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, M.DIV.
The issues for persons going through a transition include letting go of what they may be leaving and finding ways to be hopeful and curious about the next phase of life--whether new job, new baby, new age, new relationship or new community. As the adage goes, any change or crisis offers both danger and opportunity. It ios good to pay attention to both of these realities and to learn how to mazimize the new opportun ity while seeing and minimizing the potential drwbacks.

Tal Brafford
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC-A
Life is a constant becoming. Transitions are inevitable and challenging for many, including myself. As a neurodivergent person, transitions are often the hardest part of doing "the thing." I provide neuro-affirming interventions to help clients navigate their ever-changing worlds, both on the micro and macro scales. Sometimes this means addressing executive functioning or building in supports, and other times, a fresh perspective helps provide clarity. In any scenario, I cherish the privilege of being trusted to go with you.

Kelsey Grant
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHCA
Major transitions — a new role, a loss, a relationship ending, a life that no longer fits — have a way of activating parts of us that haven't had a voice in a long time. The part that's terrified of getting it wrong. The one grieving what was. The one that doesn't know who it is without the old structure. I help clients navigate transitions by working with all of those parts, not just the one trying to hold it together.

Life Transitions: Navigating the "Space Between"
Finding Your Grounding When the Map Changes
Life is a series of arrivals and departures. Whether you are navigating a chosen change—like a new career or marriage—or an uninvited upheaval—like a health diagnosis or the "empty nest"—the transition itself can trigger a profound sense of overwhelm, loss of identity, and systemic burnout. In my practice, I help you navigate the "liminal space" between what was and what will be, ensuring you don't just "get through it," but grow through it.
The Anatomy of Change
Major shifts often disrupt our internal and external systems. We work together to address the "growing pains" of life’s major chapters:
The Identity Crisis: Answering the question, "Who am I now?" when your role as a parent, spouse, professional, or "healer" changes.
The "What-Now" Anxiety: Managing the fear and rejection sensitivity that often accompany career pivots, moves, or retirement.
Spiritual & Existential Shifts: Using my Master of Divinity to hold space for the "spiritual deconstruction" or re-evaluating of life’s meaning that often occurs during mid-life or major loss.
A Systems-Rooted Clinical Approach
With over 20 years of experience, I use an integrated framework to help you stabilize your system:
Attachment & Safety: We explore how your past experiences with change influence your current "threat response." We work to build an internal sense of safety that doesn't depend on external circumstances.
Grief & Honor: Every new beginning requires an ending. We use IFS-informed work to honor the "part" of you that is grieving the past, allowing you to move forward without the weight of unprocessed loss.
Practical Resilience: We look at your "system"—your nutrition, your movement, and your social support—to ensure your body is supported as much as your mind during the stress of transition.
For the Leaders & Healers in Flux
I have a specialized focus on therapists and pastors navigating significant life pivots. When you are the one everyone looks to for stability, having your own "system" in flux can feel uniquely isolating. I provide a confidential, courageous space where you can lay down the weight of leadership and find your own path forward.

Claire Robinson-Scalzi
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHCA, NCC
Change is hard. Even if it's an exciting transition, there is always something you're leaving behind. Whether it be an identity, vocational, relational, spiritual, or personal transition, I'm here to accompany you through the grief and into the exploration of who you are becoming as you step into this transition and beyond.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Life transitions can be disorienting—even when they’re expected or chosen. Starting something new, ending something significant, or stepping into a different phase of life can bring up uncertainty, grief, pressure, and a lot of second-guessing. Whether it’s leaving home and trying to find your footing in a new environment, graduating and realizing there’s no clear roadmap, shifting careers, becoming a parent, starting or ending a relationship, or redefining your identity, these moments often come with both possibility and loss. Cultural expectations about timing, success, and “what should come next” can make it even harder to trust your own pace or direction.
At Nour Counseling, we don’t rush you through transitions or try to force clarity before you’re ready. We work with you to make sense of where you are, what you’re leaving behind, and what you’re moving toward. Together, we help you navigate the uncertainty, build steadiness in the in-between, and make decisions that actually align with your values—not just external expectations. We also center the question of belonging—helping you explore where you feel it, where you’ve been disconnected from it, and how to move toward a life that feels more aligned and connected. We name the cultural and systemic pressures shaping your experience, so you’re not carrying that alone. This is about helping you move through change with more intention, clarity, and trust in yourself—even when things feel uncertain.

Maria Jose Rendon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with adults navigating significant life transitions, including career changes, immigration, relocation, and shifts in professional or cultural identity. This includes civil servants and international staff at multilateral development organizations like the World Bank, IDB, and IMF, who are contending with chronic uncertainty, survivor exhaustion after rounds of layoffs, and what's clinically known as moral injury, the toll of watching an institution you built your identity around get dismantled. It also includes first-generation professionals adjusting to roles their families never occupied. My approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which gives us a clear, structured way to work through the disorientation transitions bring and rebuild a sense of direction. I offer sessions in English or Spanish.

Winston-Salem is home to Wake Forest University School of Medicine and Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist — one of the most significant academic medical centers in the Southeast — and this concentration of medical training and research deeply shapes the quality and sophistication of its mental health clinical community. The city's tobacco heritage — once the home of R.J. Reynolds — has given way to a growing medical, technology, and arts economy, and therapists frequently work with the identity transitions of a workforce navigating this shift. The city has a large Black community with deep historical roots in the Piedmont Triad, and culturally affirming therapists who work with racial trauma and intergenerational resilience are well represented. Winston-Salem's arts and innovation culture supports strong demand for therapists experienced with creative identity and career-related stress.
