Life Transitions Therapy in Long Island, NY and online throughout New York.

Are you feeling stuck or overwhelmed as you navigate a major life change?

Maybe a significant event, like losing a loved one or going through a painful breakup, has shaken your sense of stability, or perhaps you're struggling to adjust to an empty nest now that your children have moved out.

You may be finding it hard to focus on daily tasks or even feel like you're just going through the motions without purpose, or simply withdrawing from friends and family altogether. Perhaps you’re feeling lost, unsure of who you are or what comes next, and questioning your ability to move forward.

Whatever it is that you’re experiencing, you’re beginning to notice the impact of this in every facet of your life:

  • Struggling to stay focused and productive at work, feeling distracted or overwhelmed by emotions.

  • Avoiding social activities or relationships because you’re unsure how to explain what you’re going through.

  • Experiencing physical symptoms like fatigue, tension, or sleepless nights as your mind races with worries about the future.

Life transitions therapy can help.

It may feel impossible now, but you can find clarity and confidence in your next steps. You can rediscover a sense of purpose and regain control over your emotions. You can build a fulfilling and balanced life, even amidst change. And I can help you get there.

Life transitions therapy helps you do three things:

  • Understand and process the emotions tied to the changes you’re experiencing, so you can feel more grounded.

  • Build practical tools and strategies to navigate challenges with confidence and resilience.

  • Explore your values and priorities to create a clear path forward that aligns with your goals, so you can embrace this new chapter with clarity and purpose.

I’ll support you through this process, tailoring each step to your unique needs and circumstances. My approach to life transitions therapy comes from a place of understanding and empowerment: helping you see that the challenges you face are opportunities for growth, and together we can create a path toward the life you envision.

Feeling stuck in uncertainty and overwhelmed by change don’t have to be your story.
