Life Transitions
Annalisa Barrett
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Life transitions such as becoming an adult, getting married, having children and changing careers can be very destabilizing, even when they are events we are looking forward to. Change has a way of illuminating our fears as it presents us with the unknown. Even the discomfort of a life that requires change can feel more tolerable than the uncertainty of what is on the other side of the change. Therapy provides a space to address the fears and to slowly expand our own capacity to grow.

Life Transitions
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychoanalyst, Psychotherapist
Life transitions unsettle us even when we choose them. A new relationship, a separation, a move, a career change, or a shift in identity can all disturb our usual ways of knowing who we are and where we belong. Together we can make room for what transitions stir up, including grief for what is ending, anxiety about what comes next, and parts of yourself that can emerge for the first time.

Life Transitions
Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Life transitions—whether chosen or unexpected—can disrupt your sense of identity, stability, and direction. Changes involving relationships, career, relocation, health, aging, parenthood, retirement, or loss may bring uncertainty, grief, anxiety, and self-doubt alongside the possibility of growth.
I provide a supportive space to process what is changing, honor what is being left behind, and clarify what matters most moving forward. Together, we strengthen coping skills, rebuild confidence, and approach the next chapter with greater self-understanding, resilience, and purpose.

Danielle Esses
Psychologist, PsyD
Periods of change—even positive ones—can bring uncertainty, anxiety, or a sense of losing your footing. Therapy focuses on helping you make sense of what’s shifting, stay grounded through the transition, and move forward in a way that feels intentional rather than reactive.

Alexis Cabrera
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LMHC, LPC
I am engaged and alert with my clients. I support your growth while Frustrating your defenses- I work to confront my clients in their blind spots, because (as a New Yorker) I understand that speaking from a place of love may not always mean people-pleasing. But with the warmth of my California Licensure (c;) I work to be fluid and flexible, using somatic interventions to develop and cathart Embodied Trauma. Sometimes the history lives in the present.

Life Transitions
Jaclyn Epstein-Calvert
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Life transitions can bring both opportunity and uncertainty. I work with adults and parents who are navigating major changes such as becoming a parent, shifts in relationships, career changes, relocation, or other periods of personal growth and adjustment. Even positive changes can create stress, self-doubt, or a sense of feeling ungrounded.
In therapy, we create space to slow down and make sense of these transitions. My approach integrates relational and neuroscience-informed perspectives to help clients better understand their emotional responses, clarify what matters most to them, and move through change with greater confidence and self-understanding. Together, we work to build resilience and support clients in navigating new chapters in a way that feels authentic and aligned with their values.
