Life Transitions
Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
I work with individuals navigating life transitions by helping them process change and adjust to new roles, expectations, or identities. Life transitions can include shifts in relationships, career changes, moving, or other periods of uncertainty that can feel overwhelming or destabilizing. In therapy, we focus on making sense of these changes, building coping strategies, and increasing your ability to tolerate uncertainty. I incorporate CBT and ACT-based approaches to help you stay grounded during times of change while moving forward with greater clarity and intention.

Lauren Chavis
Psychologist, PsyD, PMH-C
Even positive changes can leave you feeling unsettled. Career changes, becoming a parent, moving, relationship changes, shifting family roles, or entering a new stage of life can challenge your sense of identity and direction. Therapy can help you make sense of what is changing, clarify what matters to you, and move forward with greater confidence.

Dr. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults navigate life transitions with greater confidence, resilience, and clarity. Major changes such as career shifts, relationship changes, marriage, divorce, parenthood, infertility, relocation, retirement, health concerns, and other significant life events can bring uncertainty, stress, and emotional challenges. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based strategies, I help clients adapt to change, manage anxiety and self-doubt, strengthen coping skills, and reconnect with their values and goals. My goal is to help clients successfully navigate life's transitions while building a meaningful and fulfilling future.

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.

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.
