Life Transitions Therapy in Cornwall

What are life transitions?

Life transitions are significant changes that occur throughout our lives, often bringing emotional, mental, and practical challenges. Whether it’s moving to a new place, starting a new job, entering or ending relationships, or coping with loss, these transitions can be exciting yet overwhelming. Such changes require adjustments in routines, coping mechanisms, and emotional resilience. While life transitions are a natural part of life, they can trigger stress, anxiety, and a sense of uncertainty, making it vital to seek support when needed.

Do you struggle with life transitions?

If navigating a life transition has left you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or uncertain, you are not alone. Life transitions can disrupt familiar routines and bring emotional ups and downs. Whether you’re entering a new chapter in life, leaving something behind, or facing unforeseen challenges, adapting can sometimes feel difficult.

Tips for managing life transitions

Here are some tips to help you manage life transitions while you seek therapy:

Acknowledge your emotions

Recognize that feeling uncertain or anxious during life changes is normal. Allow yourself time to process these emotions without judgment.

Establishing new routines can help ground you and provide a sense of stability during a time of change.

Stay connected

Reach out to friends, family, or a support group to share your experiences. Talking about your feelings can reduce isolation and help you gain perspective.

Testimonials

  • I started my therapy with Angela around 6 months ago now and it’s been life changing to say the least. With my personal journey I’ve had a number of traumas which had caused hold backs and blockages within life and so far Angela has helped me through with hypno therapy to change my core beliefs and in turn my mindset with life. Angela was actually recommended to me and I’m passing on that recommendation now also. The practise is welcoming and Angela herself is lovely, she has a calming energy, relaxing voice, and a safe space for you to heal. I’m very grateful to have found such an amazing therapist.
  • Deciding to find a counsellor has been one of the best decisions I have made because, I found Phil. For me it has been an extraordinary journey. From the first email I knew I was in the right place. Making time to see me where there is no time , welcoming and friendly I genuinely cannot speak highly enough of Phil and would recommend him, with out hesitation to any one seeking the same help as I did.
  • Dr. Johanneke is wonderful! I have had two sessions with her and the insights I have gained are invaluable. She is passionate, caring and truly has a gift to help others.
