Change is inevitable over the course of our lives. Sometimes we have sought out this change while others times it has been put upon us. Major life transitions are often very anxiety provoking as they ask us to tolerate a lot of uncertainty, unknowns and step into new ways of being that we haven’t yet mastered. These transitions can bring challenges, growth, or profound change, and each can affect someone emotionally, mentally, or even physically. With support we can meet these moments with compassion, clarity and a feeling of capability.

Life transitions come in ALL shapes and sizes, some more significant life transitions may include:

• Graduating from High School (transition to adulthood)

• Leaving Home/Becoming Independent (moving out, starting college, or living alone)

• Graduating from College (transition into the workforce)

• Starting a Career (entering the professional world)

• Entering a Serious Relationship/Marriage (romantic and family shifts)

• Becoming a Parent (birth of children or adopting)

• Experiencing Parenthood (children growing up and becoming independent)

• Divorce/Separation (end of a major relationship)

• Loss of a Loved One (death of a family member or friend)

• Midlife Crisis (reflecting on life’s purpose)

• Retirement (leaving the workforce)

• Aging (personal physical and emotional changes with age)

• Loss of Independence (health-related decline or caregiving roles)
