Life Transitions Counseling in Denver

Get help with burnout, stress management and more.

The emotional exhaustion of adjusting to a new phase of life can lead to burnout, decreased motivation, ongoing anxiety, and depression. You want to move forward confidently, but the uncertainty of what's next can be paralyzing. Excitement and nervousness coexist, and maybe adjusting is trickier than you expected. You don't have to go through this alone, whether you are experiencing a career shift, navigating life as a student, starting or ending a relationship, or simply feeling stuck. You deserve to have your voice heard and your emotions acknowledged.

Some other life moments where therapy may be helpful include:

  • Career/Job Change

  • Becoming a Parent

  • Children Leaving Home

  • Grief and Loss

  • Moving/Relocating

  • Retirement

  • Dealing with Health Issues

Life transitions therapy builds self awareness.

Building self-awareness will help you understand the root of your emotions and attune to your unmet needs so you can learn how to fulfill them.

During our sessions, you will be given the room to have your voice heard and feel validated in what you say. By working together, you will regain a sense of direction, self-confidence, and heightened emotional intelligence.

 

A life transition therapist makes therapy about YOU.

Therapy is about YOU - I recognize and honor your individuality, so I use an eclectic approach to my sessions. This means I draw from several techniques and tailor them specifically to you!

The approaches I commonly pull from include Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Psychodynamic Therapy (PDT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI). For more information on these methods, see below!

Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy

EFIT puts your emotional experiences and reactions front and center by exploring your relationship with self, others, and internal beliefs. EFIT helps you understand the root cause of your struggles, fears, and traumas and builds your self-awareness - helping you live a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

Mindfulness therapy focuses on problems partially based on unhelpful thought and behavioral patterns. Through mindfulness practices such as present moment awareness, meditation, and breathing exercises, you will learn to recognize these patterns. You can help discover better ways of coping.

Psychodynamic Therapy

Psychodynamic therapy focuses on unconscious processes manifesting in your present behavior. The focus is on self-awareness and understanding the past's influence on current behavior.

Motivational Interviewing

MI helps people resolve ambivalent feelings and insecurities to find the internal motivation to change behavior. MI explores your need for change and your reasons for wanting to change and uses this to foster a commitment to yourself and this change.
