Life Transitions
Anne Zakaras
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C
Change—even when it is chosen or positive—can completely disrupt our sense of stability, leaving us feeling untethered, anxious, or unsure of who we are anymore. Anne provides a warm, open, and collaborative space to help you safely ground yourself during periods of significant life transition. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, she partners with individuals to navigate the shifting landscapes of identity, routine, and expectation, helping them move through uncertainty with clarity and confidence.
Anne’s integrative approach is uniquely designed for seasons of change. By combining traditional talk therapy with Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and creative art therapy, she helps clients process complex emotions that are often hard to articulate. Whether you are navigating the profound shift into parenthood (maternal, paternal, or parental mental health), weathering a new medical diagnosis, processing deep grief and bereavement, or restructuring your life after professional burnout or a career pivot, Anne will help you build practical coping strategies to bridge the gap between where you’ve been and where you are going.

Life Transitions
Aaliyah Gilbert
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSW
Life transitions can bring uncertainty, stress, and a mix of emotions—even when the change is expected or positive. I support clients as they navigate major shifts such as career changes, relationship changes, identity development, and new stages of adulthood. In our work together, we focus on processing what is shifting, making sense of emotional responses, and identifying what stability and direction look like for you moving forward. My goal is to help you feel more grounded and confident as you adjust to change, while building clarity, resilience, and self-trust along the way.

Life Transitions
Juliette Grantham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I'm Juliette Grantham, a psychoanalytic psychotherapist specializing in life transitions.
A move, a wedding, a new job, a baby, retirement: even a change you wanted can leave you feeling like you have not caught up to it. You might be telling everyone you are excited while mostly feeling lost, second-guessing a decision you have already made, or homesick for a life you chose to leave behind. Career changes, big moves, becoming a parent, empty nest, and returning to school after time away often bring people to this work.
I work psychoanalytically, which means these reactions are not treated as random. They carry an unconscious logic worth understanding, often tied to expectations and fears you absorbed long before this particular change arrived. Part of this work is mourning, since even a wanted change can quietly close a door on a former version of yourself, and loss that goes unnamed tends to surface sideways, as irritability, numbness, or the sense that something is wrong with the new life. Named and understood, it tends to loosen its hold.
If a change in your life has unsettled you more than you expected, I would be glad to talk.
