Life Transitions
Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Major life changes—whether expected or sudden—can bring uncertainty, stress, and a sense of disorientation. I help individuals navigate transitions by understanding how these changes connect to identity, relationships, and internal expectations. Therapy focuses on gaining clarity, adapting to change, and moving forward with greater intention.

Major life changes can feel overwhelming, even when they are positive. Whether you are dealing with a career shift, relocation, relationship change, or another transition, it can bring uncertainty and stress. In therapy we will make sense of where you are, clarify what matters to you, and work through changes in a way that feels steady and intentional. The goal is to help you navigate change with more confidence and direction.

Jasmine Wilson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP-IT
Even positive change can feel destabilizing. Whether you’re entering adulthood, becoming a parent, ending a relationship, changing careers, grieving what was, or feeling unsure of what comes next, transitions often stir up anxiety, confusion, and self-doubt.
These seasons can bring old wounds and patterns to the surface, especially when the path ahead feels unclear. Therapy offers a space to slow down, process what’s shifting, and reconnect with your own internal compass. Together, we can help you navigate change with more clarity, steadiness, and trust in yourself.

Life Transitions
Cindy Lee Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
I work with adults navigating major life transitions, including relationship changes, divorce or separation, career shifts, relocation, identity changes, and periods of uncertainty or loss. Even when transitions are expected or chosen, they can bring up anxiety, grief, self-doubt, and a loss of stability or direction.
My approach helps you move through these periods with greater clarity and emotional grounding. Rather than focusing only on decision-making or problem-solving, we also explore the emotional and nervous system responses that often accompany change, including fear, overwhelm, or feeling stuck between what was and what comes next.
I use a trauma-informed framework and may incorporate EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and the Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM) when past experiences are activated during transitions or when change is connected to earlier attachment or trauma patterns. These modalities help reduce emotional intensity and support greater internal stability during times of disruption.
I also integrate nervous system regulation and attachment-focused work, which can be especially helpful when transitions activate old patterns such as people-pleasing, avoidance, or difficulty trusting your own decisions. Therapy is paced to match your needs, with a focus on helping you feel more grounded and self-directed.
Clients often find that as they move through life transitions with support, they gain not only clarity about external decisions, but also a stronger internal sense of confidence, resilience, and direction.
