Life Transitions
Paul T. Haefner, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Big changes: a new career, an empty nest, retirement, loss, a move, a body that won't do what it used to can leave even grounded people feeling unmoored. Transitions ask us to let go of one version of ourselves before the next has arrived. I help you navigate that in-between with clarity and self-compassion, so you come out the other side steadier, and more yourself, than when you went in.

Life Transitions
Dr. Alisha Desai
Psychologist, PhD
Even positive life changes can carry uncertainty, self-doubt, and a sense of disconnection from who you are or where you’re headed. Whether you’re navigating a career change, a new relationship, parenthood, a major decision, or a shift in your priorities, you may find yourself questioning what you want and how to move forward. Working together, we'll sort through competing expectations, reconnect with what matters most to you, and move you into your next chapter with greater clarity and intention.

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.

Life Transitions
Colby Schepps
Psychologist, Psy.D.
A change in relationships, work, health, or identity can bring uncertainty alongside new possibilities. These external changes may call for internal shifts in perspective and behavior. We can make space for the mixed feelings, clarify what matters most to you, and find grounded next steps as you adjust.

Life Transitions
Haley Busch
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
Life transitions rarely feel the way they are supposed to. A promotion, a move, a wedding, a divorce, a child leaving home — each removes some of the structure you were using to know who you are, and the disorientation that follows is often out of proportion to how good or bad the change looks from outside. I work with life transitions as identity questions rather than logistics: what this change asks you to give up, what it makes newly possible, and what it has exposed that was already unstable. Ambivalence is welcome here. Most people arrive convinced they should have settled into it by now.
