“Change, like healing, takes time.”

– Veronica Roth, Author

When change feels more like whiplash...

Logically, you know that change is a normal part of life. So why is it this hard?

You’ve finally achieved that graduation, promotion, new home, or new family of your dreams…so why does it feel so hollow? You’ve “succeeded” on paper, but you’re feeling more lost than ever. 

You know that break-ups and loss aren’t easy, but you had no idea how big of a punch this one would pack. You’re navigating a tsunami of emotions, and it feels like you’re drowning.

Your healthy routines are in the garbage, the daily uncertainty is all-consuming, and you’re grieving your old life.

You’ve finally found your way to a new place in your life, maybe even one that was supposed to be better…but you just feel lost.

Your world is upside down. Let’s turn it around together.

Imagine feeling like you were in control of your life, not the other way around.

You’re finding moments of joy again, and maybe even creating some new ones in this chapter.

The changes are still present, still big, but no longer all-consuming. You’re accepting and managing things. And you’ve got a new toolbox of communication and coping strategies for when life inevitably changes again.

That loss, that diagnosis, that major shift—it doesn’t have the power to ruin your life.

Instead of feeling lost in the woods, you’ve carved out a new normal…and it doesn’t seem quite so bad anymore.

Take a chance, make a change.  

In the midst of all these life changes, it might be time for one more: starting therapy.

Change is HARD, and we won’t gloss over that. Whether it’s a good cry, a venting session, or laughing until your stomach hurts, we’re here for it—no judgment attached.

We’ll hold space to grieve your old life, whether the change was sudden or years in the making. And we’ll gently emerge from the ashes together, growing curious about how life might look now.

You’ll have a concrete action plan to help you move forward, build resilience, and view change as a chance to grow. You’ll feel a little more whole again.

And most importantly, you won’t ever have to walk this new pathway alone.

Who this type of therapy is for:

→ You’ve been through a profound loss. Between the death of a loved one, losing a job, unexplained infertility, or divorce, you feel the pain all too strongly.  

→ You’re questioning what really matters to you and wondering how to move forward.

→ You’ve lived through a change that was supposed to be exciting – marriage, new home, graduation, a baby—but you’re just not feeling it. The joy is clouded by emptiness…and you don’t know why.

→ You’re feel like you’ve lost a part of yourself, and your emotions are all over the place.

→ You’re craving a space to actually let it all out, and yearning for a life filled with purpose, confidence, and joy.
