Life Transitions and Loss of Direction

A career change, the end of a relationship, or a shift in your role at home can leave you unsure of who you are in this next chapter. Even a change you chose can bring grief for what you’ve left behind. Sometimes nothing dramatic has happened, but the life you’ve built no longer feels like it fits.

Therapy offers a place to sort through what changed, what still matters to you, and which expectations are shaping your decisions. We can give the loss some attention while also looking at the choices in front of you, including the ones you may have been hesitant to consider.

We might start with a small step that helps you learn what you want, like having a conversation you’ve put off or making time for an interest you’ve set aside. You can use what you learn to decide what you’d like to do next.
