Understanding life change
What is life change?
Over the course of our lifetime, change remains a constant. Whether it is positive life transitions like marriage, births, or a new career, or difficult change brought on by loss or trauma, both are accompanied by unique stressors that cause difficulty in adjusting to such change.
We work closely with you
Personal growth, confidence, and willpower can be influenced by change and the inability to cope with life transitions may lead to experiencing anxiety, depression, and fatigue. Our experienced and registered therapists assist in treating these issues by exploring coping strategies.
