From breakups to career shifts to losing a loved one, therapy is here to help you find your footing and embrace the next chapter of your life.
What Are Life Transitions and How Do They Impact Us?
Life transitions are periods of change that shake up one’s sense of self and one’s path forward. They can be major, especially when navigating the realities of a post-pandemic world.
These transitions might look like:
Grief and Loss: Losing a loved one, friend, or even a pet can leave you feeling unmoored like your favorite contestant getting dumped from Love Is Blind—totally blindsided.
Career Shifts: The hustle culture we’ve grown up with might have you asking, "Is this all there is?" Maybe you’re switching industries or figuring out how to become TikTok famous.
Relationships: Breakups, starting a family, navigating dating apps—relationships can evolve unexpectedly and not constantly in the “happily ever after” direction.
Adulthood Realization: The moment you realize you’re officially an adult when you start budgeting your grocery runs and Googling "How to cook spaghetti" instead of calling your mom.
Mental Health Struggles: Trying to make sense of everything while juggling the weight of burnout, anxiety, and depression is exhausting.
These transitions, especially those involving grief, can feel like scrolling endlessly through social media without finding closure. It’s tough. However, navigating these changes with therapy can help you work through the confusion, process your emotions, and find a sense of purpose moving forward.
