Life Transitions
Alabaster Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Life is full of changes, and even the ones we choose can leave us feeling lost, overwhelmed, or unsure of who we are on the other side. At Alabaster Counseling, we specialize in helping girls and women navigate the many transitions that life brings, including becoming a mother, adjusting to an empty nest, going through a divorce, changing careers, losing a loved one, or simply stepping into a new season of life that feels unfamiliar. We understand that transitions can stir up grief, anxiety, and uncertainty even when they are positive, and we are here to help you process all of it. Through evidence-based therapy and genuine compassionate support, we help you find your footing, reconnect with your sense of purpose, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Life Transitions
Hannah Hayden with Sapphire Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Life is filled with transitions, some planned and exciting, others unexpected and difficult. Whether you're navigating a career change, starting or ending a relationship, becoming a parent, adjusting to an empty nest, relocating, experiencing a loss, or simply feeling uncertain about your next chapter, these changes can bring both opportunity and stress. Therapy provides a supportive space to process the emotions that accompany transition, gain clarity, build confidence, and move forward in a way that feels aligned with who you are and who you want to become.

Life Transitions
A Little Healing LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Even positive changes can leave you questioning who you are and what comes next. A new career, graduation, relationship change, breakup, marriage, motherhood, relocation, loss, or simply entering a new season of life can bring uncertainty, anxiety, grief, and self-doubt. I work with women who are navigating change while trying to make sense of what they want for themselves, especially when they are accustomed to making decisions based on what others expect or need from them. Together, we’ll create space to process what you’re leaving behind, reconnect with yourself, and move into your next chapter with greater clarity, confidence, and self-trust.

Life Transitions
Alton Wampler
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
From an Internal Family Systems perspective, life transitions often activate multiple parts that hold fear, uncertainty, or resistance to change. Protective parts may attempt to maintain stability through control, avoidance, or self-criticism, while more vulnerable parts carry anxiety about the unknown or loss. Therapy supports clients in accessing Self to compassionately understand these reactions, fostering flexibility and helping the system adapt to new roles and circumstances.

Chesapeake is the second-largest city in Virginia by land area — a mostly suburban and semi-rural community spread across the southern Hampton Roads region — with a therapy landscape shaped by its proximity to Naval Station Norfolk and the broader military community, as well as the particular stresses of a sprawling suburb where long commutes and limited walkable community can contribute to social isolation. The city's large African American population and its place within Hampton Roads' racially complex social fabric create demand for culturally affirming therapists who work with racial identity, community resilience, and intergenerational family dynamics. Chesapeake Regional Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources alongside the broader Hampton Roads healthcare ecosystem. Many Chesapeake residents access therapy through the wider Norfolk-Virginia Beach metro, given the city's geographic extent and integration with the regional mental health network.
