Throughout life, we experience life transitions that require change, and with change comes challenges. While some life transitions bring us joy and excitement, they may also cause a great deal of stress and uncertainty in our lives. The challenges associated with life transitions affect us differently as we all have unique life experiences.
Some examples of life transitions include becoming a new parent, getting married, career or educational changes, empty nesting, aging and life milestones, relocation, questioning your faith and spirituality as well as social, political, economic, or cultural changes.
Working with a psychotherapist can help navigate these changes, facilitate your understanding and acceptance of them, promote healthier adjustment and better coping mechanisms.
