LIFE TRANSITIONS: Sometimes the life you wanted still takes time to adjust to.

A new baby. A marriage. A divorce. Graduation. A promotion. Moving somewhere new. Children leaving home. Retirement. Becoming a caregiver. Starting over after a relationship ends. Even positive changes can leave you wondering: Who am I in this version of my life?

Transitions have a way of disrupting identity.

A stay-at-home mother may love her children deeply while missing the woman she was before motherhood consumed most of her days. A newly divorced person may suddenly have evenings alone after years of building life around another person. A college student may have spent eighteen years knowing exactly what came next and suddenly have no idea. A successful professional may finally reach the position they worked toward for years and discover it does not feel the way they imagined. You can be grateful and confused. Excited and terrified. Relieved and heartbroken. Two things can exist at once. At Renna Counseling, there is room to make sense of the space between what was and what comes next. To understand what you want to keep. What you have outgrown. What you are afraid to leave behind. And who you may be becoming now. You do not have to rush into your next identity simply because the previous chapter ended.
