Life Transitions
Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Whether it’s a career change, relocation, new parenthood, or another major shift, transitions tend to surface old patterns just as much as they create new stress. I help clients navigate the practical disruption while using the transition as a chance to understand and update long-held beliefs about themselves that may no longer serve them.

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.

Mariana Amat
Psychologist
Life transitions, whether chosen or unexpected, can bring uncertainty, loss, and disorientation. I help clients navigate these periods by making space for what is changing internally and externally, supporting a more grounded and flexible way of adapting to new stages of life.

Lakis Elezoglou
Counsellor/Therapist, Life Transitions & Feeling Stuck
I work with people experiencing life transitions, such as changes in career, relationships, identity, or personal direction. Life transitions can feel uncertain and unsettling, even when they are expected or positive changes, often leading to confusion, stress, or self-doubt.
In our work together, we explore what this transition means for you personally and how it is affecting your thoughts, emotions, and sense of direction. This process can help you gain clarity, process change at your own pace, and reconnect with your values and strengths.
My aim is to support you in navigating life transitions with greater confidence, self-understanding, and a clearer sense of where you want to go next.
