Life Transitions
Everyone goes through a variety of different transitions throughout their lifetime. Transitions can be difficult—even daunting at times. Sometimes, due to an overwhelming display of emotions, struggling with life transitions can almost feel abnormal. Well, we are here to let you in on a little secret… 1) you are not alone 2) having an emotional and/or physical reaction to life transitions is completely normal.
Whether it’s starting a new job, moving to a new city, starting graduate school, getting married, getting a divorce, starting a family of your own, experiencing health issues, or financial gain or loss, these are all situations that almost always tend to be out of our control. The only constant in life is change. Whether we like it or not, change is inevitable; however, it is an important aspect of growing as individuals.
Counseling can be a great resource for processing the overwhelming feelings that occur during a life transition. Your therapist has the ability to actively listen, validate your experience, and collaborate with you on a variety of coping mechanisms that will help soothe and relax you during this potentially stressful time.
