Alana Morazzini
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Life transitions — whether chosen or unexpected — can shake our sense of identity and leave us feeling unsteady. I work with people navigating all kinds of change: career shifts, relationship endings, becoming a parent, loss of a role, or simply the feeling that the life you once knew no longer fits. Together, we'll create space to process what you're leaving behind, clarify what you're moving toward, and rebuild a sense of groundedness along the way.

Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Life transitions often hold both possibility and uncertainty, growth and grief, excitement and disorientation. Whether navigating career changes, relationship shifts, parenthood, neurodivergent discovery, disability, chronic illness, identity exploration, aging, relocation, caregiving, spiritual shifts, educational transitions, retirement, or major life decisions, periods of change can invite us to reconsider who we are, what matters, and how we want to move through the world.
Transitions are not only practical experiences. They are often nervous system experiences, identity experiences, relational experiences, and sometimes deeply emotional or existential ones. Even changes that are welcomed or chosen can bring loss, complexity, ambiguity, and unexpected challenges alongside hope, relief, and possibility.
This work creates space to make sense of change at a pace that honors your capacity, pace, and lived experience. Exploration may include emerging identities, shifting roles, changing relationships, questions of belonging, evolving values, grief for what is ending, and uncertainty about what comes next. Particular attention is given to the ways culture, family expectations, neurodivergence, disability, chronic illness, spirituality, and other intersecting identities shape how transitions are experienced and navigated.
My approach integrates mindfulness, somatic therapy, EMDR, parts work, neuropsychotherapy, expressive arts, and liberation-oriented healing to support greater self-understanding, nervous system regulation, flexibility, and self-trust during times of change. Rather than rushing toward answers or certainty, therapy offers space to listen for what is emerging, honor what is being left behind, and remain connected to yourself as new possibilities unfold. Often, the work is less about finding the "right" path and more about cultivating the clarity, courage, and self-trust to walk it in a way that feels aligned with your values, needs, and authentic self.

Rebecca Rothberg
Psychologist, Psy.D., M.A., R.Y.T.
You may feel stuck, drained, or overwhelmed. Perhaps you have a sense that life could feel different, better, or somehow more enlivened than it currently does. I strive to create a safe container to help you access the parts of you that are innately whole, connected, and oriented toward the North Star in your night sky. I believe that under the right conditions, with the right tools, and through the right relationships, each of us is capable of the healing, growing, and thriving that we seek. Through empathic attunement and active collaboration, I hope to help you learn to experience, explore, and nurture your most authentic self.

Psychologist, Psy.D.
Major life challenges can bring uncertainty, loss, and emotions that are difficult to make sense of.

Sarah Jane Thomas
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Growth rarely happens on a perfect schedule, especially when you are dealing with career changes, family expectations, or losing people and places that used to make sense of your world. Maybe you are stepping into a new role as a caregiver, letting go of friendships that no longer fit, or trying to find your footing after a big move or loss. These moments can leave you feeling untethered or unsure of who you are supposed to be right now. We will sit with those messy feelings together, honoring the parts of your life that are ending while gently helping you build a way forward that actually fits your values. You do not have to figure it all out on your own before you start this work.

Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
Life transitions like divorce or relationship changes, empty nest, career change, relocation, retirement, or big life decisions can leave you feeling isolated, unsure of yourself and anxious. It takes tremendous courage to make a bold change. And no one really knows in advance exactly how it will turn out. As Martin Luther King Jr said, "Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase." Collaborating with a skilled therapist can give you the support you need to find clarity and take wise, well thought through calculated risks that will open up possibilities for you. I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that effectively free you from old patterns, and help you to establish the balanced, happy life you deserve.
