Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
I have had the privilege of walking alongside many clients through significant life transitions over time, often as a result of the strong therapeutic relationships and high retention rate I maintain in my practice. These ongoing relationships allow us to do deeper, more sustained work together as clients move through different chapters of their lives, rather than only focusing on a single moment in time.
Life transitions can take many forms- moving from college student to working professional, navigating dating and relationships, transitioning into long-term partnership or marriage, going through divorce or separation, becoming a parent, or adjusting to shifts in career, identity, or life direction. Each stage brings its own emotional challenges, uncertainties, and opportunities for growth.
I also recognize that transitions are not just external changes, but internal ones as well. Often, we find ourselves still holding onto older versions of who we were- past identities, coping patterns, or self-images that no longer fit who we are becoming. These outdated or stuck narratives can quietly influence the choices we make and how we see ourselves.
In our work together, we focus on identifying your core values and what truly matters to you, so you can make decisions that feel more aligned, intentional, and supportive of your wellbeing. My goal is to help you move through life’s transitions with greater clarity, self-trust, and a stronger sense of direction as you continue to grow and evolve.

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.
