When Life Changes Feel Overwhelming

​

Life doesn't always go as planned.

Sometimes change is welcome—a new job, a new relationship, becoming a parent, retirement, or moving to a new community. Other times, change arrives unexpectedly through loss, health concerns, divorce, caregiving responsibilities, job stress, or other difficult circumstances.

Even positive changes can bring uncertainty, anxiety, grief, or self-doubt.

If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or struggling to adjust to a major life change, therapy can help.

 

Common Signs You May Be Struggling with a Life Transition

You may notice:

• Feeling overwhelmed by daily responsibilities

• Increased anxiety, worry, or stress

• Difficulty making decisions

• Trouble sleeping or relaxing

• Feeling lost, uncertain, or disconnected from yourself

 

Many people tell themselves they should be able to "handle it" on their own. But major life changes often require us to develop new ways of coping, adapting, and moving forward.
