Thousand Oaks, California therapist: Kristin Robert, marriage and family therapist
Life Transitions

Kristin Robert

Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Life transitions can unsettle far more than a schedule or familiar routine; they can disrupt identity, belonging, relationships, and the future you expected to inhabit. Even wanted changes such as marriage, motherhood, graduation, career advancement, or retirement may carry grief alongside possibility, while divorce, loss, relocation, illness, or an empty nest can leave the former version of life suddenly inaccessible. Therapy creates room to honor what the transition has ended, examine what it is asking of you now, and define who you are becoming in its wake.

Encino, California therapist: Annalisa Barrett, marriage and family therapist
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.

Encino, California therapist: Sam Naimi, licensed clinical social worker
Life Transitions

Sam Naimi

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychotherapist, Psychoanalyst
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.

Los Angeles, California therapist: Jaclyn Epstein-Calvert, marriage and family therapist
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.
