Life Transitions
Rawda Tomoum
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, CCC, CGT
Life transitions can include changes in relationships, family roles, work, identity, health, culture, immigration, parenting, separation, loss, or simply realizing that the life you have no longer fits who you are becoming. Even positive changes can bring uncertainty, grief, pressure, or a loss of direction. I can help you make sense of what you are experiencing, adjust to what has changed, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Life Transitions
Bill Arbuckle
Therapist, MCP, RCC
There's a particular kind of disorientation that comes with major change, even change you chose or wanted. When the structure you were living inside shifts, it can leave you asking who you are without it, and what you actually want now. I work with people in that in-between space, helping them get oriented and find a direction that genuinely fits, not just the next thing that looks right from the outside.

Life Transitions
Victoria Jade Karra
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, CTP, CSTS
Life transitions can bring uncertainty, grief, overwhelm, identity shifts, and emotional discomfort — even when the change itself is wanted. Experiences such as relationship changes, parenthood, career shifts, illness, caregiving, loss, aging, or changes in identity and direction can challenge your sense of stability and self. Therapy can become a supportive space to process these transitions, deepen self-understanding, and reconnect with your values, strengths, and sense of direction as you move through change with greater clarity, self-compassion, and support.

Life Transitions
Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Life transitions—whether expected or unexpected—can feel unsettling, even when they’re positive. You might be navigating a career change, relationship change, move, loss, or a new stage of life, and finding yourself feeling uncertain, overwhelmed, or disconnected from your sense of direction. Transitions often bring up deeper questions about identity, purpose, and where you fit, which can feel difficult to sort through on your own.
In our work together, we’ll create space to slow down and process what this transition means for you. Rather than rushing to find answers, we’ll explore the emotions, patterns, and underlying experiences that may be surfacing during this time. Using a trauma-informed and attachment-focused approach, we’ll support both your emotional world and nervous system, helping you feel more grounded, clear, and connected to yourself as you move forward.
I draw from approaches such as ACT, IFS, EMDR, Mindfulness-Based CBT, and somatic-based practices, tailoring our work to your unique needs. Together, we’ll build practical tools to navigate uncertainty while also supporting deeper reflection, self-trust, and meaningful change.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to see if we’re a good fit.

Sam Duran
Counsellor/Therapist, MAMFT, RCC, EMDR-Trained
Significant life changes can bring uncertainty, stress, and difficult decisions, even when the change itself is expected. Changes involving marriage, family, career, relocation, immigration, loss, or other major circumstances can affect your sense of stability and direction. Counselling can help you work through these challenges, clarify what matters to you, and approach the next chapter of life with greater confidence and purpose.

Melinda Freitas
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RCC, CCS
Navigating big changes in your personal or professional life can be overwhelming. Counselling for such changes in life gives you a safe space to process stress, cope with the unknown, rediscover who you are, and build practical tools for your next chapter. Whether it's a job change/loss, marriage/divorce, grief/loss or aging, it can be beneficial to seek help and support.

Life Transitions
Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
Whether you are navigating divorce, heartbreak, career uncertainty, parenting challenges, a spiritual awakening, identity shifts, dark nights of the soul, or a season of deep personal transformation, support can help you move through change with more steadiness. I work somatically, trauma-informed, and with attention to the nervous system and energy field, honoring what your body and heart are holding so we can gently address healing from the root. My focus is compassionate, root-cause healing that helps you reconnect with inner safety, clarity, and trust as you move forward. If you are feeling caught in the in-between, sensing that something needs to change, or moving through fear and uncertainty in the unknown, I would love to support you.

Pamela Mekuz
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Q)
Life transitions can bring a complicated mix of emotions, even when the changes are ones we've chosen or looked forward to. Whether you're navigating a shift in your relationships, career, family life, or sense of identity, you may find yourself feeling uncertain, overwhelmed, or unsure of where you fit. I offer a supportive space to explore both the challenges and opportunities that come with change, including the feelings of loss that can sometimes accompany new beginnings. Together, we can make sense of what you're experiencing, reconnect with what matters most to you, and find a way forward that feels authentic and meaningful.
