Liza Roth, MA, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
When we're young, we think of life transitions as exciting... uncharted terrain. It's not until we are in them that we realize they can be difficult and disorienting. Life as we knew it is changing and sometimes we're so busy with the logistics of the transition that rarely do we sit and feel the emotions that go along with this big shift as it's happening. Let me help you process what's happening so you can make sense of the changes to come.

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.

Timothy Weymann
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (L.C.S.W.)
Life transitions—whether chosen or unexpected—can stir up uncertainty, grief, excitement, and everything in between. As a therapist specializing in life transitions, I provide a steady, compassionate space where you can slow down, reflect, and make sense of what’s changing. You might be navigating a career shift, relationship changes, parenthood, an empty nest, relocation, health challenges, or questions about identity and purpose. Together, we’ll explore the emotional impact of these shifts, untangle self-doubt, and reconnect you with your strengths and values. My approach is collaborative, grounded, and practical. I integrate insight-oriented conversations with tools you can use in everyday life—helping you build clarity, resilience, and confidence as you move forward. Change can feel overwhelming, but it can also be a powerful opening. You don’t have to navigate it alone.
