Life Transitions
Michelle Iulianella Counselling & Psychotherapy
Counsellor/Therapist, BEd, MBA, MA, RCC
Throughout the course of our lives, we can experience significant stressors unique to where we are on our journey. Adult lifespan stressors can include relationship difficulties, separation or divorce, parenthood, relocation, financial and career-related stress, retirement, health issues, caring for aging parents and supporting struggling adult children. Lifespan stressors related to aging can include physical or cognitive decline, social isolation and the loss of independence. And of course, experiencing the death of someone we love can occur at any point throughout our lives. Everyone experiences different lifespan stressors, although some people may be more vulnerable to certain types of stressors than others. The impact that these stressors may have on one’s emotional well-being varies widely depending upon one’s arsenal of healthy coping strategies and support. This is why Michelle loves working with her clients to develop the cognitive and emotional resilience necessary to navigate these major lifespan stressors with grace and fortitude.

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.

Kai DeMaeyer, Talk with Kai Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Q)
Sometimes life changes in ways you chose, and it still hits harder than expected. Sometimes it changes without your permission entirely. Either way, transitions tend to surface questions about identity, direction, and who you are outside of the role or chapter that just ended. That disorientation is worth taking seriously, not just pushing through until the next thing settles.

Melinda Freitas
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RCC, CCC
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.

Victoria is British Columbia's capital city and a major retirement destination, giving it an older demographic profile than most Canadian cities — one that generates consistent demand for therapists working with aging, loss, caregiver stress, and the psychological dimensions of life transitions in later years. The city's government-worker culture, combined with the University of Victoria and Royal Roads University, creates a well-educated population that is generally comfortable seeking therapy and willing to engage in longer-term work. Island Health provides public mental health resources alongside a well-established private therapy community serving Oak Bay, Saanich, and the Inner Harbour area. Victoria's separation from Metro Vancouver by water means specialist therapist access can be limited in some areas, with telehealth filling an important gap for clients seeking a specific type of match.
