Alana Morazzini
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Life transitions — whether chosen or unexpected — can shake our sense of identity and leave us feeling unsteady. I work with people navigating all kinds of change: career shifts, relationship endings, becoming a parent, loss of a role, or simply the feeling that the life you once knew no longer fits. Together, we'll create space to process what you're leaving behind, clarify what you're moving toward, and rebuild a sense of groundedness along the way.

Nes Pinar Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I help people with developmental trauma navigate life transitions by creating a grounded, compassionate space to understand why these moments can feel so overwhelming. Together, we explore the old survival strategies that get activated during change and gently build new ways of relating to yourself that feel safer and more aligned. My approach is warm, steady, and collaborative—supporting you as you move through transition with more clarity, self‑trust, and emotional resilience.

Life transitions can bring uncertainty, stress, and shifts in how you see yourself and your relationships. Whether you're navigating changes in a relationship, career, or family dynamic, you may find yourself feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of what comes next.

Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Life transitions often hold both possibility and uncertainty, growth and grief, excitement and disorientation. Whether navigating career changes, relationship shifts, parenthood, neurodivergent discovery, disability, chronic illness, identity exploration, aging, relocation, caregiving, spiritual shifts, educational transitions, retirement, or major life decisions, periods of change can invite us to reconsider who we are, what matters, and how we want to move through the world.
Transitions are not only practical experiences. They are often nervous system experiences, identity experiences, relational experiences, and sometimes deeply emotional or existential ones. Even changes that are welcomed or chosen can bring loss, complexity, ambiguity, and unexpected challenges alongside hope, relief, and possibility.
This work creates space to make sense of change at a pace that honors your capacity, pace, and lived experience. Exploration may include emerging identities, shifting roles, changing relationships, questions of belonging, evolving values, grief for what is ending, and uncertainty about what comes next. Particular attention is given to the ways culture, family expectations, neurodivergence, disability, chronic illness, spirituality, and other intersecting identities shape how transitions are experienced and navigated.
My approach integrates mindfulness, somatic therapy, EMDR, parts work, neuropsychotherapy, expressive arts, and liberation-oriented healing to support greater self-understanding, nervous system regulation, flexibility, and self-trust during times of change. Rather than rushing toward answers or certainty, therapy offers space to listen for what is emerging, honor what is being left behind, and remain connected to yourself as new possibilities unfold. Often, the work is less about finding the "right" path and more about cultivating the clarity, courage, and self-trust to walk it in a way that feels aligned with your values, needs, and authentic self.

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.

Rewilding Earth & Psyche - Tyler Mostul, MSN
Life Coach, Earth-Based Depth Coach, Master's in Nursing - Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing
Life transitions are often great opportunities for growth and transformation. We usually have to be willing to take great risks and face our fears in order to experience the gifts of the transition. Too often these opportunities are wasted, and a person ends up changing only superficially while the roots stay the same. One focus of my work is helping people to transform at a deep level during a transition.

Shauna Farabaugh
Life Coach, Certified Somatic Sex Educator, Board Certified Sexologist, Certified TRE provider
Life impacts our sexuality--and it's not often talked about! Aging, perimenopause/menopause, the birth of a child, the end of a relationship, acquisition of illness or injury, gender transition, sobriety -- all these changes, and many more, impact how our bodies respond, what we want, and how we relate to our sexual identities and expression. I also believe we can connect with our sexuality in these times of transition as a source of strength, resilience and wisdom to guide us through change. Somatic sex education provides the opportunity to re-learn and re-create our sexuality--to learn about, work with and celebrate the body and eros we have NOW! Ready to take the first step?
