Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a "big" life change to start therapy for transitions?
No. Any shift, big or small, that is affecting your wellbeing, identity, routines, or relationships is a valid reason to seek support.
What if I feel guilty or "dramatic" for struggling with a life change?
That's extremely common. Even positive transitions can be stressful. Therapy is a judgment-free space to process your emotions without having to minimize them.
I'm not sure what I want or where I'm headed, is therapy still helpful?
Absolutely. Many people come to therapy because they're unsure about next steps. Together, we'll clarify your needs, values, and direction at your pace.
Will therapy tell me what decisions to make during a transition?
No. Instead of telling you what to do, your therapist will help you understand what you want, build confidence, and make decisions that align with your values.
