Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help clients navigate major life and career transitions, including changes in work, relationships, family roles, identity, leadership responsibilities, and personal goals. Even positive transitions can bring stress, uncertainty, self-doubt, and pressure to make the right choice. In therapy, we work on clarifying what matters, managing anxiety, strengthening confidence, and building a realistic path forward. My goal is to help clients move through change with more clarity, stability, and trust in themselves.

Change can be difficult, even changes that are perceived as "positive." Many life transitions--graduating from college, getting married, becoming a parent, divorce, changing careers, retirement, loss of a loved one--can stir up a lot for the average person. Life transitions can involve a changing sense of identity, challenge existing relationships, require the development of new relationships, shift priorities, require new boundaries, and even "positive" life transitions can include feelings of loss of the prior self and perceived benefits and freedoms. If you are going through a life transition, I would like to be there to help you process all of your feelings.

Transitions destabilize identity, not just logistics. A new role, a move, a relationship change, or becoming a parent can leave you competent on paper and disoriented underneath. We work on tolerating the in-between period without rushing to resolve it, clarifying what you want the next chapter to be built around, and making decisions from values rather than from fear of getting it wrong.

Even positive changes can feel emotionally loaded! Whether you’re navigating a new phase of life, a shift in relationships, or feeling uncertain about what’s next, it can be hard to find your footing. With our work, we’ll create space to slow things down, explore what you’re experiencing, and help you move through change with more clarity, confidence, and a stronger sense of direction.

Danielle Esses
Psychologist, PsyD
Periods of change—even positive ones—can bring uncertainty, anxiety, or a sense of losing your footing. Therapy focuses on helping you make sense of what’s shifting, stay grounded through the transition, and move forward in a way that feels intentional rather than reactive.
