Life Transitions

Change is inevitable and a natural part of life. Even though expected, we often have a difficult time adjusting to it and can even experience sadness and loss in the process.

TRANSITIONS CAN BE DIFFICULT

Certain transitions can be harder to adjust to than we may have estimated… even exciting changes such as getting married, having a baby, moving or retiring from work. It is easy to find ourselves disillusioned and confused when these happy moments do not fulfill our dreams.

Of course life throws us all unexpected events which derail our plans and dreams for the future. This can be a very sad and disappointing time as we struggle to reinvent ourselves after a divorce, illness or job loss. These transitions are difficult to accept as they intensely disrupt our life plans. Other normal changes such as our children meeting certain milestones, leaving for college, retirement and aging issues cause many of us to question our purpose. We may find we need encouragement and support during these transitions to gain perspective and new ground on which to frame our lives.

HOW THERAPY CAN HELP

Therapy can help us work through the loss experienced during difficult life transition. Many of the transitions we experience, involve grieving losses in order to embrace the next phase of our life.
