Bridgit Serrano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C
Big life changes can disrupt our sense of stability and identity. Whether you’re adjusting to new parenthood, navigating relationship changes, moving, shifting careers, or entering a new stage of life, transitions can bring unexpected stress, grief, or self-doubt.
Therapy offers space to process what’s changing while strengthening your ability to adapt and move forward. As an LCSW trained in EMDR and certified in Perinatal Mental Health, I help clients work through difficult experiences, release old patterns, and navigate life transitions with greater resilience, clarity, and self-understanding.

Melanie Simms
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
The transition to adulthood is HARD. I support teenagers and young adults with navigating the unique challenges related to moving from childhood to adulthood. This includes reflecting on one's childhood, healing from traumatic childhood experiences, exploring one's values, and making intentional choices to build the life they want and deserve. Our brains continue developing until our mid-20s and while that might make planning and decision making more difficult during this phase of life, it also means the brain is more elastic and quicker to heal.

Major changes can bring uncertainty even when they are positive or chosen. I help adults navigate career changes, relationship shifts, loss, identity questions, and other periods of transition with greater clarity, flexibility, and confidence about what comes next.
