Therapy for the in-between — divorce, career shift, identity change, parenthood, empty nest, faith change, illness, loss of role. ![Loss](/topic-grief.jpg) Stage 1 ## Loss What was — and won't be again. The role, the relationship, the version of yourself that this chapter held. Grief is the entry door to every real transition, even the chosen ones. ![Liminal](/topic-identity.jpg) Stage 2 ## Liminal The in-between. The old structure is gone and the new one hasn't arrived. Most people experience this phase as failure or stagnation; it's actually where the substantive work happens. ![Becoming](/topic-heritage.jpg) Stage 3 ## Becoming The slow emergence of the next shape. Not a return to who you were, not a rejection of it — a new configuration that integrates what you've metabolized. What we work on in transition Grieving the version of you that's ending. ◊ Sitting in not-knowing without rushing toward a new identity. ◊ Identifying what wants to be kept versus released. ◊ Noticing what's actually drawing you forward. ◊ Building the next version with intention, not reaction. Common transitions we work with Divorce, separation, career pivot, retirement, becoming a parent, becoming a caregiver, empty nest, recovery, faith change, illness diagnosis, gender or identity exploration, geographic move, immigration adjustment, and the long process of leaving a role that had defined you for a long time. "You are not failing at being who you were. You are succeeding at becoming who you're becoming." $175 per 50-min session · Sliding scale available· Bilingual EN/ES Questions ## Common questions. ### What if I don't know what comes next? ### Is this only for big, dramatic transitions? ### How is this different from regular therapy?
