Therapy for Life Transitions.
You have an empty nest, now what?
You are no longer defined by your role as their mother.
(Parts of that feel sad, and some parts feel so free…)
It feels conflicted. Some parts of you are thrilled, this is what you have always wanted for them, but you are realizing that this comes with lots of emotions that are starting to impact other parts of your life.
Your emotions are all over the place. Some days you feel great, other days you can’t stop the tears. It’s so unpredictable
Your relationship with your partner has changed over the years and now that it’s just the two of you, you are wondering how you will spend your time together.
You find yourself evaluating everything in your life; your relationships, your work, and how you spend your free time.
It may feel confusing now, but you can rediscover yourself again. You can find your way through the emotions and fulfill your personal desires. You can reconnect to yourself and your relationships.
It will feel like renewal, and I can help you get there. Therapy for life transitions can give you peace and clarity.
Your role as a mother has been at the forefront of your life for so many years now. It’s the first thing you identify when someone asks you about yourself.
Maybe have forgotten who you really are and what YOU love to do. While they are still the center of your world, they are not the center of your daily life.
It’s a bitter sweet. This is what you have always wanted for them, and yet you’re here and you’re not quite sure how you feel about it.
