Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people whose lives have been disrupted or reshaped in ways that ask real questions about who they are now. This might include graduating and stepping into adult life, feeling unsure about next steps in a demanding career, becoming a parent or adding a child, separation or divorce, major shifts in important relationships, retirement, moves that change your community, health changes, or later‑life questions about how you want to live the time ahead. Even wanted or carefully planned changes can feel disorienting. You might notice old patterns resurfacing, feel pulled between different parts of yourself, or find that what used to motivate you no longer does. People around you may expect you to be excited, grateful, or to “figure it out,” while inside you feel unsettled, numb, or unsure which way to go. In our work together, we focus on helping your nervous system and daily life stabilize enough to move through this transition, while also exploring the deeper questions of meaning, purpose, and identity that it brings up. We pay attention to what is ending, what is beginning, and what feels most true for you now, so the change you are living through can become more grounded and more aligned with a life that actually fits you.

Elizabeth Nogel
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Change can be both exciting and challenging, whether you’re starting a new job, navigating a breakup, becoming a parent, or adjusting to a major life shift. Our individual therapy sessions offer a compassionate space to process your emotions, gain clarity, and rediscover your sense of direction during times of transition.
