Life Transitions
Andrew McKenzie, Psy.D.
Psychologist
Major life changes often bring uncertainty, even when they're positive. Whether you're navigating a career change, identity shift, relationship change, becoming a parent, retirement, or another transition, therapy offers space to slow down and make sense of what you're experiencing. Together, we'll explore both the practical and emotional challenges that come with change while developing the flexibility to move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and purpose.

Life Transitions
Pattie Vargas
Counselor/Therapist, CBC®️Certified Provider, Kessler Certified Grief Educator
Life transitions can be a catalyst for new growth or can leave us stuck in paralysis while we grieve all we are leaving behind. The end of a marriage, losing ground in your career, moving from a familiar hometown can all leave us feeling untethered and unable to find our way. Even the most accomplished and confident person can find themselves at a loss when all the recognizable signposts have been moved. During our time together, we can identify both the sorrow in moving forward and the new opportunities that may present themselves in disguise!

Life Transitions
Jessica Anderson, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
Feeling like you always have to get everything “just right” can be exhausting. Perfectionism often leads to stress, procrastination, and fear of making mistakes, even when you’re capable and driven. My focus centers around teaching individuals how to manage high expectations, reduce self-criticism, and build confidence in their efforts, not just the outcome.

Life Transitions
Heather Watson-Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I support individuals navigating life transitions such as career changes, relationship shifts, parenthood, or major life decisions. These periods can bring uncertainty, stress, or a loss of direction, and therapy provides a space to process and regain clarity. I help clients build resilience, confidence, and a sense of purpose as they move forward.

Providence is home to Brown University, Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), and Providence College — together generating significant student mental health demand and a creative, intellectually engaged population that views therapy favorably and tends toward longer-term, exploratory work. The city has a large Cape Verdean and Latino community, with a significant Guatemalan and Dominican population that creates demand for culturally affirming, Spanish-speaking therapists who understand the particular dynamics of immigrant family life in New England. Rhode Island Hospital and Lifespan Health provide institutional mental health resources, while Brown's Warren Alpert Medical School maintains important psychiatric training programs. Providence's arts and hospitality economy creates consistent demand for therapists experienced with creative identity, economic precarity, and the mental health challenges of artists and performers.
