Life Transitions
Full Circle Mental Health LLC
Registered Social Worker, MSW, LISW
Major life transitions—even the positive ones—can completely disrupt your sense of normalcy, leaving you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and deeply disconnected from your usual grounding. Whether you are navigating a career pivot, stepping into a new phase of adulthood, adjusting to a post-divorce reality, or experiencing the intense friction of merging households, I provide a tailored, telehealth space across Ohio to help you anchor yourself amidst the chaos.
At Full Circle Mental Health LLC, I view life transitions through an integrative, systemic lens. Changes in one area of your life inevitably ripple out into your relationships, daily routines, and mental health. Grounded in a strengths-based, trauma-informed framework, I help individuals, couples, and blended families process the complex emotions that come with heavy adjustments:
• Managing Adjustment Anxiety: We draw from standard CBT and DBT skills to help you regulate your nervous system, quiet the voice of self-doubt, and build practical tools to handle daily uncertainty.
• Navigating Relational Changes: Utilizing Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Bowenian family systems to help you map out collective dynamics, establish healthy new boundaries, and manage the friction of shifting family structures.
• Action-Oriented Goal Clarification: Implementing Solution-Focused Therapy to help you tap into your innate resilience, clarify your current values, and take tangible, confident steps into your new chapter.
You do not have to navigate these shifting tides in isolation, and you do not need to have all the answers right away. Together, we will look at your big picture, honor your unique narrative, and co-create a personalized virtual roadmap that helps you find steady footing and step confidently into your future.

Life Transitions
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.

Shawna Stillwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, IMFT-S
Major life changes, even the ones we choose, can leave us feeling unstable, uncertain of who we are, and nervous about the future. I help clients navigate transitions with curiosity rather than anxiety, using them as an opportunity to deepen self-understanding and reconnect with what's really important.
