Life Transitions

Brian Lieberman, Psy.D.

Psychologist, Psy.D.
Major life challenges can bring uncertainty, loss, and emotions that are difficult to make sense of. I help adults navigate transitions through psychotherapy, EMDR when appropriate, and process groups that provide opportunities to understand experiences, put feelings into words, and move forward with greater clarity.

San Francisco, California therapist: Sarah Jane Thomas, marriage and family therapist
Life Transitions

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.

San Francisco, California therapist: Shauna Farabaugh, life coach
Life Transitions

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? Contact me today for your FREE consultation.

San Francisco, California therapist: Debbie Cherry, marriage and family therapist
Life Transitions

Debbie Cherry

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Major transitions can expose relationship patterns that were easier to manage when life was more predictable. Moving in together in San Francisco, relocating to Los Angeles, getting engaged, becoming parents, changing careers, or entering a new stage of marriage can all require couples to renegotiate how they operate as a team. I help couples navigate these transitions intentionally so change becomes an opportunity to strengthen the partnership rather than simply something to survive.

Los Angeles, California therapist: Heidi Hartston, psychologist
Life Transitions

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.

Sausalito, California therapist: Lisa McNelley Therapy, marriage and family therapist
Life Transitions

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.
