Life Transitions
Karine Flynn
Psychologist, MSc, GMBPS
Major transitions - career change, loss, relationship endings, becoming a parent, relocating - often surface old material that had been successfully managed. The destabilisation of a transition can be an opening: a moment when the nervous system is already in flux and therefore more available for reorganisation. Focused somatic work during or after a significant transition can help you move through it, rather than around it.

Life Transitions
Anna Brooker
Therapist, Advanced Level 3 BWRT Therapist, Award Winning Women's Health Coach, Life Coach
Life transitions such as perimenopause, children leaving home, a career change or retirement can unsettle even the most capable woman. It's common to feel anxious, lose confidence or wonder who you are now. BWRT® can help you let go of the automatic anxious responses that make change feel so hard, while health coaching can support the physical side of transitions like menopause. I offer a free 15-minute consultation. Send me a message using the enquiry form and I'll get back to you. Together we'll focus on what you want the next chapter to look like.

Life Transitions
Kevin Martin
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychotherapist Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, BACP, ITTA, EA
Life Transitions are major shifts or turning points that alter our roles, routines, relationships, or sense of identity. Whether planned (like moving, starting a career, or getting married) or unexpected (like job loss, loss of a loved one, or illness), navigating significant change requires adapting to a new baseline while processing the loss of the familiar.
Phases of Transition
The Ending: Acknowledging and letting go of the previous status quo, along with the roles or certainty associated with it.
The Neutral Zone: The uncomfortable middle ground where the old is gone, but the new isn't fully established yet—a space often marked by uncertainty, reflection, and adjustment.
The New Beginning: Embrace new routines, set updated goals, and integrate the experiences you've gained into a renewed sense of identity.
Key Strategies for Navigating Change
Acknowledge the Emotional Impact: Allow yourself to grieve what changed or ended, even when the transition is positive or self-chosen.
Focus on What You Can Control: Identify small, daily habits and routines you can maintain when surrounding circumstances feel chaotic.
Practice Self-Compassion: Resist the urge to have everything figured out immediately; adapting to new roles or environments takes time.
Build a Support Network: Lean on trusted friends, mentors, or counsellors to process the adjustment phase without isolating yourself.

Registered Psychotherapist, Diploma Soul Centred Psychotherapy; MA(R.es) Cultural Studies; GradDip IT & Politics; BA(Hons)Human
Life transitions can bring a sense that something is shifting—whether through changes in relationships, work, health, ageing, or an inner feeling that your current way of being no longer fits. Even when change is chosen, it can unsettle your sense of identity and direction. You may feel uncertain, emotionally exposed, or disconnected from yourself. In our work together, we create space to slow down and listen to what is unfolding beneath the surface—supporting you to move through change with greater awareness, self-trust, and a deeper connection to your inner life.
