Anxiety & Life Transitions
Anxiety often intensifies during periods of change — starting college, entering a new career, shifting relationships, or navigating questions of identity. These transitions can bring up uncertainty, self-doubt, and a sense of being unmoored, even when the change itself is a positive one.
I work with individuals navigating this kind of anxiety and adjustment, with particular experience supporting college students and young adults through the specific pressures of this life stage — academic demands, family expectations, evolving relationships, and the broader task of figuring out who you are outside of the roles you've been given.
Treatment is tailored to your specific circumstances rather than a fixed protocol. Depending on what's most useful for you, this may draw on cognitive-behavioral approaches, polyvagal-informed care, or other evidence-based methods, always with attention to your individual history and current context.
This work is not about eliminating anxiety entirely — some anxiety is a normal part of navigating change — but about helping you move through this period with more clarity, less overwhelm, and a stronger sense of your own footing.
