Life Transitions
Aysha DeSilva

Life Transitions
Sandra Lashley
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Life is full of transitions and it is tempting to think they are therefore pretty easy to navigate. But they often are not. They can be difficult. Transitions often involve the unknown which can be particularly difficult emotionally. Bearing the unknown as well as letting go of what was are not easy and this is a common issue in my work with clients. Many people find that therapy during times of transition can help them work through issues in a clearer way. And provide a notable sense of relief.

Life Transitions
Dr. Munazza Abraham
Psychologist, PhD
I support clients navigating career shifts, identity evolution, relocation, motherhood, partnership changes, and other major turning points. Using an African-Centered Psychology framework, I help clients understand transitions as sacred developmental passages rather than personal failures. Together, we clarify values, strengthen internal grounding, and build intentional next steps rooted in purpose and cultural alignment.
Together, we’ll unpack and challenge internalized messages, build coping skills to navigate life’s ups and downs, and strengthen your capacity to live in alignment with your values and self-defined purpose. My practice emphasizes that “Community is medicine” with my creation of therapy groups to increase your sense of belonging and enhance collective healing. I also tap into ancestral knowledge, holistic and evidence-based practices, and the arts, all combined with your interests to tailor your healing experience.

Life Transitions
Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Life transitions can place unexpected stress on even the strongest relationships. Changes such as marriage, parenthood, career shifts, relocation, grief, caregiving, retirement, or changes in identity and priorities can impact communication, emotional connection, and daily routines. Gottman Method couples therapy helps partners navigate these transitions together by actively guiding conversations into deeper understanding of each partner's dreams to create a shared dream and direction. Through evidence-based tools and guided conversations, couples learn how to manage stress more effectively, strengthen emotional intimacy, and adapt to change while staying connected as a team.
The most common life transition that I help couples navigate is the "empty nest." Many people find themselves lonely and resentful at this stage of life and come into therapy to find themselves, their partner, and a new dream of a life together.

Life Transitions
Starlain Saldana
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Whether we actively seek a life transition or one happens to us outside our control, we will process the areas of loss and the difficulty these moments often bring to our lives. We will also look for space in these transitions that offer opportunities to re-evaluate the direction of our lives in order to build a life more aligned with our ultimate wants and hopes.
