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 have a way of catching us off guard, even the ones we choose. A new job, a move, a retirement, an empty nest, the end of a relationship, the loss of an identity you had worn for years. Even the good changes can leave you feeling unsteady, wondering who you are now that everything looks different.
That disorientation is normal. And it deserves real support.
At CCW International, we specialize in walking alongside people in the middle of change. We know that transitions are rarely just logistical. They are emotional, deeply personal, and often tied to questions about purpose, belonging, and what comes next. For our veteran clients, that might look like navigating the shift from military to civilian life and mourning the mission, the structure, and the community that came with it. For many of the women we serve, it might be stepping into a new season of life and not quite recognizing themselves in it yet.
Wherever you are in your transition, we help you get grounded. We help you grieve what was, make sense of where you are, and get clear on where you want to go. Because change does not have to mean losing yourself. It can be the very thing that helps you find yourself.
We are here for all of it.

Dr. Shannon Coleman
Psychologist, PhD
Major life changes can bring both opportunity and uncertainty, whether you are starting a new chapter, changing careers, adjusting to an empty nest, or navigating other unexpected circumstances. Therapy can help you process the changes, clarify what matters to you, and determine how you want to move forward.

Dr. Heather Sheets
Psychologist, PsyD
Life transitions can leave you feeling uncertain about who you are, where you are going, and what comes next. Whether you are experiencing a career change, divorce, becoming an empty nester, changes in your relationships, a shift in your family, or simply questioning what you want from this next chapter, transitions can bring both opportunity and emotional upheaval.
I work with individuals who are navigating significant life changes to help them understand what they are experiencing and find a way forward that feels authentic and meaningful. Together, we explore the thoughts, emotions, and beliefs that may be influencing how you respond to change—and identify the patterns that may be keeping you stuck.
My approach is integrative and solution-focused. Using cognitive behavioral therapy, emotion-focused therapy, narrative psychology, mindfulness, and strength-based techniques, we examine how your experiences have shaped the way you see yourself and the world around you. We can identify limiting beliefs, challenge self-doubt, and develop healthier ways of responding to uncertainty.
Transitions can also bring an opportunity to reconsider the story you have been telling yourself about who you are and what your life is supposed to look like. Therapy can help you separate yourself from the problem, reconnect with your strengths, and create a new narrative for the next portion of your life.
My goal is not simply to help you get through a transition. It is to help you understand yourself more deeply, make intentional choices, and move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and purpose.
Sometimes the life you imagined changes. Together, we can explore what is possible in the life that comes next.
