Life Transitions
Claire Yamashita
Pre-Licensed Professional, MSW, LICSWA
Life transitions can be scary. Change can be scary. But it does not have to be. Graduating school, changing careers, starting a family, or a change in relationship status can be an opportunity to grow and try new things, or a chance for our fears to get the best of us. We decide how we respond to any given situation. Change is inevitable, and it is up to us to fight it or flow with it.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in helping individuals navigate life transitions—whether it’s starting college, changing careers, ending or beginning a relationship, or stepping into a new phase of life. Even positive change can feel overwhelming, bringing uncertainty, stress, or a sense of being ungrounded. Together, we focus on creating clarity, building resilience, and helping you stay connected to yourself as things shift around you. My approach combines practical tools with mind-body awareness, supporting you in moving through change with more confidence, stability, and intention.

Even positive transitions can bring stress, uncertainty, and self-doubt.

The goal is to help clients adjust with resilience, gain clarity about their next steps, and move forward with greater balance and purpose.

Life Transitions
Morgan Desai
Pre-Licensed Professional, LMFTA
Change, whether planned or not, can bring up a wide variety of emotions and challenges. Starting a new job, transitioning in or out of a relationship, moving to a new place, or entering into a new phase of life (adulthood, being a parent, retiring, etc.) can be exciting and wonderful, but can also bring up feelings such as guilt, grief, or uncertainty. It can be overwhelming and it is important that you feel seen and heard!
The way you experience and view these transitions can also be impacted by your family of origin and the broader systems you are apart of. Through therapy, we can process complex emotions, explore internal and external narratives that may be impacting your experience, and help you to feel empowered and secure throughout your transitions.

Life Transitions
Dr. Meghan Miller
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Major life transitions—career shifts, leadership changes, motherhood, relationship changes, relocation, or identity shifts—can stir up uncertainty, anxiety, and self-doubt, even when the change is positive. These moments often challenge how you see yourself and what you thought your life would look like. In therapy, I integrate CBT and values-based work to help you process the emotional impact of change, clarify what matters most in this season, and move forward with intention. Whether you’re stepping into a new role or reevaluating long-held expectations, our work will focus on helping you navigate change with greater clarity, resilience, and alignment.

Life Transitions
Tacoma Wellness Collective
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Some of life's hardest moments aren't crises — they're changes. A new job, a relationship ending, a move, a loss, becoming a parent, leaving a career, watching your kids grow up and out. Transitions that look like progress on the outside can feel disorienting, grieving, or completely unmooring on the inside.
That tension is real. And it deserves more than "this is a good thing, you should be grateful."
At TWC, we work with adults in the middle of change — helping them process what's being left behind, find footing in what's ahead, and understand who they are becoming in the space between. Transitions often surface older patterns and unresolved grief. We don't rush past that. We work with it.
If you're in a season of change and struggling to find solid ground, you don't have to navigate it alone.
If this resonates, we'd love to support you.

Life Transitions
Doria McGahey
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
We all go through a number of transitions in life and sometimes you need support in navigating the hard stuff. Often our identity is tied to different roles in life like: career, parent, child, sibling, partner, athlete, caregiver, etc and when things shift in our lives it can cause a lot of distress and leave you feeling disoriented. Questions like, who am I now that my kids are grown up? or in menopause or aging? or I'm retired? or single? You may find that you are experiencing anxiety, depression, existential questions, fear, or even self-esteem issues. I focus on this area because I know how important it is to have someone help you explore and move through these changes feeling open, empowered, and engaged rather than from a. place of fear.

Life Transitions
Gary D. Alexander
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, MFT, NCC
Life transitions can include experiences such as career changes, relationship shifts, divorce, relocation, aging, or other moments when life begins to feel uncertain or unfamiliar. In therapy we explore not only the practical adjustments these changes require, but also the deeper emotional and relational meanings they may carry. As these experiences are better understood, many people begin to find greater clarity, resilience, and a renewed sense of direction.

Life Transitions
Melanie Carey
Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA
Life transitions can bring both change and uncertainty, even when they are chosen or positive on the surface. Shifts such as career changes, relationship endings or beginnings, relocation, identity exploration, health changes, or emerging creative directions often stir deeper questions about who you are and how you want to live.
During these periods, it is common to feel ungrounded, emotionally activated, or disconnected from your usual sense of self. Even meaningful transitions can bring grief, anxiety, confusion, or a sense of being “in-between” identities or life chapters.
In therapy, we slow down and make space for the emotional and embodied experience of change. From a psychodynamic perspective, we explore how past transitions and attachment experiences may be shaping your current response to uncertainty, loss, or new beginnings.
Using Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy, we also listen to the “felt sense” of transition — the often wordless, body-based experience of not yet knowing what comes next. This helps bring clarity and grounding from within, rather than forcing quick decisions or external answers.
Rather than rushing toward resolution, this work supports you in staying present with the threshold space of change. This can include processing grief for what is ending, making room for ambiguity, and gently sensing into what is emerging.
As nervous system regulation increases and inner clarity strengthens, many clients find they are able to move through transitions with more trust, steadiness, and self-compassion — even when the path ahead is not fully defined.
This approach is especially supportive for creatives, highly sensitive individuals, and those navigating identity shifts or life reinvention who want to move through change in a way that feels grounded, intentional, and internally guided.

Life Transitions
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.
