Life Transitions

Help with Managing Life Transitions

Whether coping with the loss of a loved one, moving to a different area, starting a new job, or struggling with the challenges of mid-life and aging, change can create both challenge and opportunity. Anxiety, tension, excitement, grief, paralysis, anticipation, and confusion are only a few of the vast range of emotions associated with life transitions.

We at the Temenos Center can help you to cope with the range of thoughts and feelings that come with the experience of change, to identify the fears and concerns that may hinder you from moving forward, and to convert struggle into creativity and momentum.

At Temenos we can help you resolve these issues. Our approach can include individual and/or couples/family therapy, depending on what you would feel to be most helpful. You can count on each of our highly trained professionals to be supportive and understanding.

Support in coping with life transitions

We human beings often dislike change and have a hard time handling it. Some of the challenging transitions in life are:

• The loss of a loved one through separation, divorce, or death
• The first few years after college and living on one's own
• Planning a wedding and getting married
• Buying a house or moving to a new area
• Changes in family size due to the birth of a child or children leaving home
• The physical and status changes which sometimes come with reaching mid-life or older years
• Chronic illness, disability, and terminal illness
• A change in lifestyle for any reason
• Personal growth requiring changes in how we spend our time or who we spend it with
• Adjusting to life after addictions and eating disorders
• During transitions, people need support, stress reduction, strategies for keeping up self-esteem, and a caring and safe place to talk about how life is for them right now. They also need to adjust to their new lives at their own pace, even when others encourage them to "move on."

A Temenos therapist can often help people use these times of often - unwelcome change as a springboard to create a more satisfying life than before. Most of all, we have learned that people can get through virtually anything if they do not have to do it alone.
