Life transitions are the big changes we go through at different stages of our lives. They often involve moving from one phase to another, which can feel like a big shift and affect how we feel and handle things.
Treatment
Therapy can provide valuable support during these transitions by offering a safe space to explore feelings, develop coping strategies, and build resilience. A plan for achieving personal goals will be developed. This will help you and your child to better manage stress, enhance self-awareness and make these life changes more manageable and positive.
