Transition counseling can play a crucial role in these times, as a therapist helps individuals learn skills for effective coping and managing the intense emotions that may arise during such significant life changes. Some, like starting a new job, becoming a parent, sending children off to college, or helping a loved one as they age, are anticipated. Others, such as divorce, the death of a loved one, losing a job, or facing a serious illness, can occur unexpectedly. Whether planned or unexpected, each transition involves moving from a familiar situation to one that is unfamiliar and not yet established. This process can challenge a person’s cognitive abilities as they work to navigate new and often difficult circumstances.
