Therapy for Life Transitions & Relationships
Change is unavoidable — but that doesn't always make it easier. Some transitions are chosen and exciting. Others arrive unexpectedly, leaving you feeling disoriented, grieving something you can't quite name, or unsure of who you are on the other side of it.
Whether you're navigating a relationship ending, a career pivot, a move, a shift in identity, or a persistent sense of being stuck, therapy offers a space to make sense of what's happening and reconnect with what you actually want.
We address:
Identity shifts and questions about who you are or who you want to become
Breakups, divorce, and the grief that comes with relationship endings
Career changes, job loss, or uncertainty about your career path
Family dynamics and conflict
Graduating college or graduate school and entering a new chapter
Athletic retirement and life after sport
Periods of feeling emotionally stuck, disconnected, or like you're going through the motions
Therapy provides a supportive relationship to make sense of these changes, explore patterns in how you relate to yourself and others, and clarify what you want moving forward. Together, we focus on building insight, emotional resilience, and more fulfilling, authentic connections so you can move through transitions with greater clarity and confidence.
We provide therapy for life transitions and relationships in Boston (in person) and throughout MA & CT (virtually).
Our Approach
As a relational practice, we pull strongly from Relational Cultural Therapy (RCT). RCT is a therapeutic approach grounded in the idea that growth and healing happen through healthy, supportive relationships rather than in isolation. It focuses on understanding how disconnection, shame, and relational patterns impact well-being, while also emphasizing the importance of authenticity, mutuality, and connection in creating change.

Relationship and life transition therapy focuses on helping you navigate changes in your life—such as breakups, new relationships, career shifts, identity changes, family dynamics, or feeling “stuck.” It provides a supportive space to better understand yourself, process what you’re going through, and move through change with greater clarity and self-trust.
-
If you feel overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally reactive, disconnected in relationships, or uncertain about your direction in life, therapy can help. You don’t need to be in crisis—transitions are often exactly when support is most helpful.
-
The therapeutic relationship is a beautiful thing - it’s a place where you can assert yourself and practice vulnerability with no judgment. We will work with you to build confidence in your communication skills and find ways to better express yourself.

Major life changes often bring stress because they disrupt routines, identities, and a sense of predictability. What helps most is grounding yourself in what is stable while you adjust to what is new. This can include building small, consistent routines, breaking larger changes into manageable steps, and focusing on what is within your control in the present moment. It can also help to make space for your emotional response—stress, grief, excitement, or uncertainty can all show up at once during transitions. We will provide a space for you to manage the inevitable stress.
