Read counselor profile →Questions about life transitions counseling
Can I seek counseling for a positive change?
Yes. You can contact our office about changes you welcomed as well as changes you did not choose. Explain what has felt difficult about the adjustment.
Does adjustment difficulty mean I have a disorder?
The phrase here describes difficulty adapting to change; it is not a diagnosis. A qualified professional can assess your concerns and discuss appropriate care.
How is this different from grief counseling?
Life transitions counseling focuses on adapting to changing circumstances and roles. Grief counseling focuses on the experience of loss. Your concerns may overlap, and our office can help you consider a starting point.
Can I talk about more than one change?
Yes. Describe the concerns that are connected for you, rather than feeling you need to choose just one issue before reaching out.
How do I book and check insurance?
Contact our office through the website inquiry form, conversational inquiry widget, phone, or email to ask about life transitions counseling and scheduling. Insurance and self-pay are available. Participation varies by counselor, plan, and appointment type; our office can confirm current coverage.
