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.

Tatiana Turo-Handy, PsyD., PMH-C
Psychologist, PsyD. PMH-C
Life transitions—whether planned or unexpected—can bring a mix of stress, uncertainty, and emotional overwhelm. As a bilingual (Spanish/English) psychologist, I provide supportive, evidence‑based therapy to help individuals navigate major changes such as becoming a parent, shifting roles in relationships, career transitions, relocation, identity changes, or evolving family dynamics. Therapy offers a space to process complex emotions, strengthen coping skills, and regain a sense of stability and direction during periods of adjustment.

Dr. Jason Wang, Inflection Points Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Life transitions (even those that are wanted or carefully planned) can challenge our resilience and unsettle familiar roles, routines, relationships, identities, and expectations for the future. Transitions may involve beginning or ending a relationship, moving, pursuing an academic path, building a family, taking on caregiving responsibilities, coping with loss or changes in health, or entering a new stage of life. They can bring excitement and possibility alongside stress, uncertainty, grief, or a sense of feeling unmoored.
Therapy can provide support as you make sense of what is changing, adjust to new circumstances, process what you may be leaving behind, and consider what you want to carry forward. Our work may involve clarifying your needs and values, strengthening coping and decision-making skills, developing greater flexibility and self-compassion, and identifying realistic ways to move through the transition and into what comes next.

Melissa LaCour
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Change is disorienting — even the changes we choose. Marriage, divorce, becoming a parent, losing a parent, changing careers, graduating, retiring, relocating — each of these asks you to redefine yourself in ways that take longer and feel harder than most people expect. I work with adults who are standing at these crossroads and need space to grieve what's behind them, make sense of what's happening now, and build clarity about who they're becoming. My approach is grounded in the understanding that transition isn't just logistical — it's an identity process, and it deserves to be treated that way.
