Life transitions, such as moving, starting a new job, or going through a major life event, can stir up feelings of uncertainty, anxiety, and sadness. These changes can be overwhelming, but they are also opportunities for growth.
Helping You Navigate Change: We understand how hard life transitions can be, and we’re here to support you through the ups and downs. Our goal is to help you develop coping strategies, build resilience, and find strength in change. Together, we’ll help you embrace the new chapters of your life with confidence.
PHYSICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL reactions you may have during a life transition
Life transitions are significant changes that can impact your emotional and physical well-being. While they’re a natural part of life, these moments can sometimes feel daunting or destabilizing. Examples include moving to a new city, starting a family, changing careers, retiring, or dealing with a loss.
PHYSICAL REACTIONS
Fatigue, muscle tension, headaches, difficulty sleeping, changes in appetite, and restlessness.
PSYCHOLOGICAL REACTIONS
Anxiety, sadness, irritability, feelings of uncertainty or fear, trouble concentrating, and mood swings.
