Diane Hough, LMFT — Integrative Therapy for Relationships & Life Transitions

Transitions can shake up our sense of identity and direction, even when the change is something we've chosen.

Many of the clients work with come into therapy because of life transitions. While they can challenging they can also often help us to grow in many ways.

Lisa McNelley Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #156096
There are the transitions in life that we celebrate and look forward to, and the others that feel like someone pulled the rug out from under our feet. The latter can sap the energy out of us and make what once felt solid suddenly unpredictable. Often, it's losses; death, divorce, job-loss, as well as the anticipated transitions such as children moving out or retirement that make us unexpectedly feel untethered. I can offer a safe space to work through the complexities of challenging transitions and find coping strategies and tools to help you navigate life while you find your way.

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.

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.
