Transition counseling is for individuals facing change — whether expected or unexpected — who feel uncertain, overwhelmed, or disconnected during periods of transition. Life transitions can challenge identity, relationships, and emotional balance, even when they are positive or chosen.

This work supports you in finding steadiness, meaning, and direction as you move through change.

In life stage counseling you can:

• Navigate marriage, parenthood, separation, divorce or remarriage
• Overcome the challenge of remarriage and blending families
• Recover from infidelity, job loss or career change
• Rediscover purpose after losing a life partner
• Reclaim lost parts of yourself
• Redefine roles and relationships on your terms

Life transitions often disrupt familiar routines, roles, and relationships. Transition counseling provides a supportive space to process loss, uncertainty, and change while helping you reconnect with your strengths and values.

This work helps you adapt with resilience, clarify what matters most, and move forward with greater confidence and emotional balance.

Dr. Gardin’s approach to individual therapy is relational, compassionate, and evidence-based. Sessions are collaborative and grounded in respect, curiosity, and emotional safety. Rather than offering quick solutions, the work focuses on increasing awareness, understanding patterns, and creating lasting internal change.

This process allows you to take risks without fear, express your needs more clearly, and move through life with greater confidence and self-trust.

If you are facing a life transition and seeking support, the first step is reaching out. A consultation provides space to explore your current challenges, ask questions, and determine whether this approach feels right for you.

You do not need to have everything figured out to begin — just a willingness to take the next step.
