Therapy for Life Transitions in Ottawa

Life transitions, whether planned or unexpected, can bring both opportunity and challenge. In Ottawa, many people experience transitions such as career changes, retirement from public service, moving into or out of university, adjusting to parenthood, or navigating relationship changes. Even positive transitions can stir up stress, uncertainty, or grief as you adjust to new roles and routines.

At Tiny Therapy Collective, we support individuals in Ottawa through all types of life transitions, helping you find clarity and resilience as you move forward.

How Therapy Can Help with Life Transitions

Therapy provides a supportive space to explore the impact of change and build strategies to navigate it with confidence. Our therapists use approaches like CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behaviour Therapy), and solution-focused therapy to help clients in Ottawa:

• Process emotions such as anxiety, sadness, or overwhelm

• Identify personal strengths to guide you through change

• Build coping strategies for stress and uncertainty

• Adjust to new roles in work, family, or relationships

• Reframe challenges as opportunities for growth

• Create a sense of stability during times of adjustment

Everyday Supports During Transitions

Alongside therapy, small steps can help you manage the ups and downs of transitions:

• Routine anchors: Keep a few daily habits consistent to ground yourself.

• Connection: Reach out to supportive friends, family, or community groups in Ottawa.

• Reflection: Journaling about your experiences can bring clarity and self-understanding.

• Self-care: Prioritize rest, movement, and nutrition to support resilience.

• Gentle goals: Break larger adjustments into smaller, manageable steps.
