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
Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
In my now 30 years in the field, I have helped clients navigate transitions including college, first jobs, marriage, parenthood, divorce, illness, aging, and grief following a death. My relational and IFS approaches help clients understand how changing roles and circumstances affect their identity, relationships, and sense of direction. I offer space to process loss, explore mixed feelings, and find meaningful next steps.

Life Transitions
Jason Holland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Life transitions can shake your routines, relationships, and sense of direction, even when the change is positive. We can focus on coping and practical adjustment while also making room for the deeper questions that often come up during change. I help people clarify what matters now, make decisions with more confidence, and move forward in a way that feels grounded and meaningful.

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.

Life Transitions
Karen Hammack
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Life, for anyone, brings transition periods - new relationships, new to parenting, grief and loss, postpartum issues, career changes, empty nesting - we are often faced with periods that bring increased stress and/or sadness. Therapy can be a space to both process these changes, and find new meaning and rhythm to these changes.
