Starlain Saldana
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Whether we actively seek a life transition or one happens to us outside our control, we will process the areas of loss and the difficulty these moments often bring to our lives. We will also look for space in these transitions that offer opportunities to re-evaluate the direction of our lives in order to build a life more aligned with our ultimate wants and hopes.

Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you’re going through a major life transition, you may feel unsettled, uncertain, or overwhelmed—even if the change is something you chose. Whether it’s a career shift, retirement, relocation, relationship change, or another significant life event, transitions can disrupt your sense of stability and leave you questioning what comes next. It’s common to feel a mix of stress, self-doubt, and pressure to “figure it out” quickly.
I help clients navigate life transitions with greater clarity, confidence, and emotional stability. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we identify and manage the thoughts that create anxiety, indecision, or self-doubt. With clinical hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), and NLP, we work at a deeper level to reduce emotional overwhelm and help you adapt more effectively to change. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you stay grounded in your values, so your next steps reflect what truly matters to you—not just fear or uncertainty.
What’s often missing during transitions isn’t effort—you’re already trying to adjust and move forward. What’s missing is a structured way to process the change while also creating a clear direction for what’s next. Without that, it’s easy to feel stuck, second-guess yourself, or move forward without confidence.
The fact that you’re here suggests you’re ready to navigate this transition in a more intentional way. If you’re willing to approach this with clarity and support, I can help you move forward with greater confidence, reduce uncertainty, and create a next chapter that feels aligned with who you are and where you want to go.

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.
