Life Transitions
Bridgit Serrano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C
Big life changes can disrupt our sense of stability and identity. Whether you’re adjusting to new parenthood, navigating relationship changes, moving, shifting careers, or entering a new stage of life, transitions can bring unexpected stress, grief, or self-doubt.
Therapy offers space to process what’s changing while strengthening your ability to adapt and move forward. As an LCSW trained in EMDR and certified in Perinatal Mental Health, I help clients work through difficult experiences, release old patterns, and navigate life transitions with greater resilience, clarity, and self-understanding.

Life Transitions
Melanie Simms
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
The transition to adulthood is HARD. I support teenagers and young adults with navigating the unique challenges related to moving from childhood to adulthood. This includes reflecting on one's childhood, healing from traumatic childhood experiences, exploring one's values, and making intentional choices to build the life they want and deserve. Our brains continue developing until our mid-20s and while that might make planning and decision making more difficult during this phase of life, it also means the brain is more elastic and quicker to heal.

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.
