Megan Noren
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Life transitions can bring a mix of emotions, even when a change is expected or something you've chosen. Whether you're navigating a shift in relationships, changes in family roles, a career transition, becoming a parent, or adjusting to a new stage of life, you may find yourself feeling uncertain, overwhelmed, or disconnected from the person you used to be. Therapy offers a space to make sense of these changes, explore what you're leaving behind and moving toward, and better understand what you need in this next chapter. Together, we can work through the emotions that accompany change, reconnect with your values, and develop a clearer sense of direction. My goal is to help you navigate uncertainty with greater self-trust and self-compassion as you create a life that feels meaningful and authentic to you.

Dr. Alisha Desai
Psychologist, PhD
Even positive life changes can carry uncertainty, self-doubt, and a sense of disconnection from who you are or where you’re headed. Whether you’re navigating a career change, a new relationship, parenthood, a major decision, or a shift in your priorities, you may find yourself questioning what you want and how to move forward. Working together, we'll sort through competing expectations, reconnect with what matters most to you, and move you into your next chapter with greater clarity and intention.

Psychologist, Samantha Mackson, Psy.D.
Life transitions can bring a mix of excitement, uncertainty, and stress. Whether you’re navigating a major change in relationships, school, career, or family life, I help clients adjust to new circumstances, work through difficult emotions, and find a greater sense of clarity.

Vickie Bhatia
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Transitions can be difficult regardless of whether they are planned or unplanned, positive, or negative. Career changes, becoming a parent, health issues, a breakup, a move, a milestone birthday that hits harder than expected, caregiving stress, loss and grief - transitions can destabilize even people who are usually steady. I help clients make sense of what's shifting, grieve what's being left behind where needed, and move forward with more clarity about what they actually want next.

Haley Busch
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
Life transitions rarely feel the way they are supposed to. A promotion, a move, a wedding, a divorce, a child leaving home — each removes some of the structure you were using to know who you are, and the disorientation that follows is often out of proportion to how good or bad the change looks from outside. I work with life transitions as identity questions rather than logistics: what this change asks you to give up, what it makes newly possible, and what it has exposed that was already unstable. Ambivalence is welcome here. Most people arrive convinced they should have settled into it by now.
