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.

There are many types of life transitions and even those viewed as positive may come with stress and difficulty. My approach assists clients to clarify their personal values and life goals, learn to make life-enhancing behavioral changes, and develop new and more flexible ways of thinking about and responding to challenges.

Life Transitions
Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Every major transition — a move, a loss, a new beginning, the end of something that defined you — strips away the structure you had been living inside without noticing. What remains can feel like nothing. That blankness is not emptiness. It is the space before the next thing, and it requires a particular kind of patience. Therapy during transition is not about figuring out the next step. It is about tolerating the interval long enough to discover what actually wants to emerge, rather than grabbing for the first thing that will make the uncertainty stop.

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.

Psychoanalytic therapy and it's goal of self understanding can be particularly helpful when you're navigating a major life transition. I work with people at transitions at various ages, but I particularly enjoy working with young adults as they navigate the world in a new way.
