My Approach to Helping
I am dedicated to helping you navigate through life's many tranisitions which typically can present many challenges. The unstability of change in your life can catch you off balance. If handled as an opportunity, this transition in life may lead to a positive outcome in your future.
Some of the Transitions of Life include:
Starting school again, this time as an adult
Graduating from High School
Starting a new job
Changing careers
Beginning a new career
Getting married/divorced
Having children
Dealing with death
Moving on your own
Changing jobs
Retiring
Conflicts in family
Getting Arrested
Cybersex addictions
Starting to date
Ending a relationship
In general, these transitions will cause stress in your life. Everyone goes through some of these changes, known as Phase of Life Transitions. However, how we handle these major changes will influence the remainder of our life, and can have a dramatic impact upon us. Since life will never be the same, this can be a disturbing adjustment for many people.
It is important for our future that we do not allow these major transitions to have a negative effect on us.
The goals in moving successfully through life transitions are:
Learn to manage the changes
Readjust to the new lifestyle
Continue to grow and learn.
Life transitions, as well as any changes in lifestyle, can bring on, or can be caused by a major life crisis. If you are having difficulty with a phase of life transition, it may result in a family or relationship issue that could be helped through therapy.
