Life Transitions
Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Transitions are disorienting because they require you to let go of an identity before the new one is fully formed. Whether you're navigating a career change, a move, the end of a relationship, becoming a parent, or any other major shift — the discomfort you're feeling isn't weakness. It's the gap between who you were and who you're becoming. At Simple Empathy we help you move through that gap with clarity, honesty and depth. We'll look at what you're leaving behind, what you're afraid of, and who you actually want to be on the other side.

Life Transitions
Louis Hoffman
Psychologist, PhD
Life transitions, whether anticipated or unexpected, can disrupt our sense of identity, stability, purpose, and connection with others. Changes in relationships, careers, family roles, health, or life circumstances may bring opportunities for growth alongside feelings of uncertainty, grief, anxiety, or loss. I work with individuals to navigate these transitions with greater awareness, self-compassion, and intentionality. Rather than focusing solely on adjusting to change, we explore how these experiences relate to personal values, identity, relationships, and meaning. Together, we work toward embracing new possibilities, developing greater resilience, and finding ways to move forward with authenticity, purpose, and a renewed sense of direction.

Life Transitions
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.
