Alexis Smith
Pre-Licensed Professional, MHC-LP
I help clients navigate major life transitions such as relationship changes, career shifts, relocation, or evolving identity and life roles. Together, we work through the uncertainty that often comes with change, process the emotions that arise, and build practical tools for staying grounded during periods of instability. My approach is supportive and collaborative, helping you make sense of where you are while identifying what you need to feel more steady and supported moving forward. The focus is on strengthening resilience, increasing clarity, and helping you move through transitions with greater confidence and self-trust. If you’re going through a major change and looking for support, I invite you to reach out or explore my profile to learn more.

Karen Nadel
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Has your life been touched by a major event such as a death, divorce or layoffs at work? Are you having a hard time moving through and past the emotional turmoil? Do you feel completely stuck and like you need guidance getting back on track?
There’s no denying that life often presents us with our fair share of challenges, usually in the form of sudden change. These life transitions, even the positive ones, can throw us into a tailspin and leave us feeling stressed, confused and vulnerable. But with the right tools and mindset, you have the power to not only overcome any adversity but also transform into a more authentic and confident version of yourself.
Change Can be Beneficial
Change, even difficult change that is neither wanted or expected, can influence personal growth. Change gives us the opportunity to see what we’re made of; to become stronger, more confident, and better prepared for what life throws at us next. With each new challenge, we develop new personal skills and obtain a greater awareness of ourselves, our family and our communities.

Some of the most common life transitions we help clients navigate are:
Moving away to college
Adjusting to university life or your first professional job

Sometimes we can handle change and adversity by ourselves and sometimes we need a little help. Dr. Nadel creates an environment where you can speak candidly and receive care, compassion and guidance.
