Philip Cooke
Psychologist, PhD
Life transitions, such as leaving home for the first time, starting a relationship or family, or taking on a new occupation, are unavoidable parts of life. Often we’re able to adapt to our new circumstances with relative ease. Other times, changes in life push us to the limits of our resilience. Therapy strengthens our natural resilience by helping us adapt more flexibly to unexpected or undesired life changes in the future.
Stress can expose limitations in our psyches, bodies, and communities we may have never knew existed. In therapy, we try to understand how stress is affecting your ability to cope and help build enduring strategies for dealing with new stressors. We work toward developing more flexible and intentional responses to life’s demands, and by doing so, make stress more manageable moving forward.
