Chanveen Taneja
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Navigating major Life Transitions, such as career shifts, relocation, or changes in family structure, often brings up deep questions about who we are and where we belong. I provide a supportive framework to help you manage the stress and uncertainty that come with these pivotal moments, ensuring you don’t have to navigate the "unknown" alone. Together, we work to process the grief of what is being left behind while building the practical skills and emotional resilience needed to embrace your next chapter. My goal is to help you view Life Transitions not just as a source of stress, but as a profound opportunity for personal growth and authentic self-discovery.

Shawna Damiani
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Life has a way of pulling the rug out — sometimes without warning, and sometimes in ways you actually chose and still find yourself completely unprepared for. A new job or a lost one. A move across the country or across town. A relationship beginning or ending. Becoming a parent. Losing one. Turning an age that hits differently than you expected. Realizing somewhere along the way that the life you built no longer fits the person you're becoming.
Transitions are disorienting even when they're good. Even when everything looks fine on paper. Even when everyone around you thinks you should be celebrating. There is a particular kind of loneliness in standing at a threshold and not quite knowing who you are on the other side of it.
At Love Let Out, we work with people in the middle of change — those who feel unmoored, those who are grieving a version of their life that is gone, and those who are quietly terrified of what comes next even as they move toward it. We also work with people who feel stuck — who sense that something needs to shift but can't quite find the door.
Transitions have a way of bringing everything to the surface. Old patterns, old wounds, old questions about identity and worth and belonging that you thought you'd already answered. That's not a setback. That's an invitation.
This is a space to figure out who you are right now — not who you used to be, and not who you're supposed to become. Just who you are, in this moment, in the middle of everything changing.

Jill Wiseman
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC-S
Life transitions can bring uncertainty, stress, and emotional overwhelm—even when the change is something you chose. Events such as job changes, an empty nest, retirement, relocation, or shifting relationship dynamics can challenge your sense of purpose and identity.
In therapy, we work together to process the emotions that often accompany life transitions, including stress, uncertainty, anxiety, self-doubt, grief, and feeling stuck. I help clients gain clarity about what they’re experiencing, develop practical coping strategies, and build confidence as they move through periods of change.
Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), we can address both the thought patterns and emotional responses that make transitions feel overwhelming. Therapy can help you regain balance, adapt to change, and move forward with greater resilience, purpose, and self-understanding.

Life Transitions: Navigating the "Space Between"
Finding Your Grounding When the Map Changes
Life is a series of arrivals and departures. Whether you are navigating a chosen change—like a new career or marriage—or an uninvited upheaval—like a health diagnosis or the "empty nest"—the transition itself can trigger a profound sense of overwhelm, loss of identity, and systemic burnout. In my practice, I help you navigate the "liminal space" between what was and what will be, ensuring you don't just "get through it," but grow through it.
The Anatomy of Change
Major shifts often disrupt our internal and external systems. We work together to address the "growing pains" of life’s major chapters:
The Identity Crisis: Answering the question, "Who am I now?" when your role as a parent, spouse, professional, or "healer" changes.
The "What-Now" Anxiety: Managing the fear and rejection sensitivity that often accompany career pivots, moves, or retirement.
Spiritual & Existential Shifts: Using my Master of Divinity to hold space for the "spiritual deconstruction" or re-evaluating of life’s meaning that often occurs during mid-life or major loss.
A Systems-Rooted Clinical Approach
With over 20 years of experience, I use an integrated framework to help you stabilize your system:
Attachment & Safety: We explore how your past experiences with change influence your current "threat response." We work to build an internal sense of safety that doesn't depend on external circumstances.
Grief & Honor: Every new beginning requires an ending. We use IFS-informed work to honor the "part" of you that is grieving the past, allowing you to move forward without the weight of unprocessed loss.
Practical Resilience: We look at your "system"—your nutrition, your movement, and your social support—to ensure your body is supported as much as your mind during the stress of transition.
For the Leaders & Healers in Flux
I have a specialized focus on therapists and pastors navigating significant life pivots. When you are the one everyone looks to for stability, having your own "system" in flux can feel uniquely isolating. I provide a confidential, courageous space where you can lay down the weight of leadership and find your own path forward.
