Reiss Psychology Services, PLLC
Psychologist, PsyD
Life transitions — whether it's a family move, parents' divorce, changing schools, a new sibling, or the shift into adolescence — can be some of the most destabilizing experiences for young people, even when the change itself is positive. Some tools that help with life transitions include psychoeducation about the transition process, emotion regulation and grounding skills, cognitive reframing, and identity and narrative work,

Dr. Heather Sheets
Psychologist, PsyD
Life transitions can leave you feeling uncertain about who you are, where you are going, and what comes next. Whether you are experiencing a career change, divorce, becoming an empty nester, changes in your relationships, a shift in your family, or simply questioning what you want from this next chapter, transitions can bring both opportunity and emotional upheaval.
I work with individuals who are navigating significant life changes to help them understand what they are experiencing and find a way forward that feels authentic and meaningful. Together, we explore the thoughts, emotions, and beliefs that may be influencing how you respond to change—and identify the patterns that may be keeping you stuck.
My approach is integrative and solution-focused. Using cognitive behavioral therapy, emotion-focused therapy, narrative psychology, mindfulness, and strength-based techniques, we examine how your experiences have shaped the way you see yourself and the world around you. We can identify limiting beliefs, challenge self-doubt, and develop healthier ways of responding to uncertainty.
Transitions can also bring an opportunity to reconsider the story you have been telling yourself about who you are and what your life is supposed to look like. Therapy can help you separate yourself from the problem, reconnect with your strengths, and create a new narrative for the next portion of your life.
My goal is not simply to help you get through a transition. It is to help you understand yourself more deeply, make intentional choices, and move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and purpose.
Sometimes the life you imagined changes. Together, we can explore what is possible in the life that comes next.

Dr. Jason Wang, Inflection Points Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Life transitions (even those that are wanted or carefully planned) can challenge our resilience and unsettle familiar roles, routines, relationships, identities, and expectations for the future. Transitions may involve beginning or ending a relationship, moving, pursuing an academic path, building a family, taking on caregiving responsibilities, coping with loss or changes in health, or entering a new stage of life. They can bring excitement and possibility alongside stress, uncertainty, grief, or a sense of feeling unmoored.
Therapy can provide support as you make sense of what is changing, adjust to new circumstances, process what you may be leaving behind, and consider what you want to carry forward. Our work may involve clarifying your needs and values, strengthening coping and decision-making skills, developing greater flexibility and self-compassion, and identifying realistic ways to move through the transition and into what comes next.

Psychologist, Psy.D.
In my now 30 years in the field, I have helped clients navigate transitions including college, first jobs, marriage, parenthood, divorce, illness, aging, and grief following a death. My relational and IFS approaches help clients understand how changing roles and circumstances affect their identity, relationships, and sense of direction. I offer space to process loss, explore mixed feelings, and find meaningful next steps.
