Life Transitions
Changes and transitions in life can be hard. Changes can involve mourning for a lost loved one, like a family member or an animal companion, coping with unemployment, or adjusting to a new culture when immigrating. Transitions are the gamut of emotions that come up related to such changes.
Everyone deals with life changes in their own way. Some prefer more time alone, some prefer more time with closed family and friends, and some fall somewhere in the middle. What you need is what you need, and that’s totally fine. Sometimes people need to talk to a professional counselor about private and personal feelings that they don't want to share with their loved ones. If this is your case, do consider psychotherapy for additional, confidential support.
When faced with life transitions, I believe that integration is key. Rather than attempting to separate different facets of your life, I endeavor to assist you in unifying them into a seamless whole. My goal is to help you discover ways to integrate all aspects of your life in a way that is balanced and harmonious. This allows you to embrace the changes and challenges that come with transitions and allows you to find peace and balance within yourself. Creating space for changes and transitions allows you to honor the natural timing of your thoughts and emotions as you incorporate the past into the present. This process shows that you're giving yourself the time and respect you need to adjust to the changes and to grow.
