Life Transition
Major life changes can feel emotionally exhausting, stressful, or difficult to navigate, even when the change is something you wanted or expected.
You may find yourself struggling to adjust to a new stage of life, relationship shifts, career pressure, parenthood, relocation, grief, identity changes, or unexpected challenges. Even positive milestones can bring anxiety, emotional pressure, self-doubt, or uncertainty about what comes next.
