Life can change quickly. Sometimes the change is expected, like starting college, beginning a new job, getting married, or becoming a parent. Other times, it arrives without warning through divorce, job loss, illness, grief, a move, or a major shift in a relationship.
Even positive changes can bring stress, anxiety, uncertainty, or sadness. You may feel like you should be adjusting more easily and wondering why everything feels so difficult.
At Luminous Psychotherapy, we provide life transition counseling in Annapolis, Maryland for children, adolescents, teens, adults, and families. Our therapists offer compassionate support as you work through change, understand what you’re feeling, and find ways to move forward.
Life Transitions Can Affect People at Any Age
Change looks different depending on where you are in life.
A child may struggle after a move, divorce, change in school, or shift within the family. An adolescent or teenager may feel overwhelmed by changing friendships, school pressure, family changes, or the transition toward greater independence.
Young adults may experience anxiety around college, leaving home, starting a career, or figuring out what comes next. Adults may be navigating relationships, divorce, parenting, a career change, financial stress, caregiving, retirement, grief, or other major changes.
Whatever the transition, your response to it is personal. No matter what you’re going through, there is no single “right” way to feel.
How Life Transition Therapy Can Help
