Work through life’s unexpected moments

Therapy for Life Transitions in San Diego, California

Life is going a bit differently than planned, and you’re not sure what to do

Maybe you were ready to take the next step with your partner, and now you’re working through a breakup and feel like you’ll never find your person. You’re feeling unlovable, unconfident, and like a failure. Perhaps you just got a new promotion or job and have been struggling with feelings of inadequacy and imposter syndrome. You may have recently moved to California or a new city and feel lonely without your community of friends and loved ones. 

Whether or not this change was something you were planning, you’ve found yourself riddled with doubt and sadness. You feel like everyone around you tries to be supportive, but they don’t truly understand what you’re going through. You feel vulnerable asking for help and have found yourself comparing your life to the lives of the people around you who seem to be handling this life transition amazingly in their own lives.

You want to…

  • Move on and learn to love yourself again

  • Feel confident at work 

  • Gain acceptance of your new life and learn how to make new memories

  • Find a way to seek comfort from the people in your life without feeling like you “failed.”

You don’t have to go through it alone

Life is stressful, but you don’t have to go through it alone

How we’ll work together

Therapy for life transitions will help you:

  • Feel confident dating someone new without bringing past relationships with you

  • Reduce feelings of stress and anxiety

  • Learn how to adjust to distance from family and close friends

  • Feel at peace with unplanned changes

  • Gain insight about what your values and goals for the future look like

We will work together to make meaning of the changes, process feelings and emotions, and work to identify ways to cope with the transition so that you can continue to live your life without feeling the constant heaviness that can come with change.
