Identity in Transition: Mental Health During Life Changes

Life transitions—such as retirement, relocating, or experiencing job loss—can bring about unexpected emotional challenges. These moments often prompt questions about identity and purpose, as the roles we once held shift or disappear. Even positive changes can lead to feelings of grief, anxiety, or uncertainty. At RCC, we understand that during these transitions, it’s common to feel ungrounded or overwhelmed, and we’re here to support individuals in navigating these emotional shifts with care and clarity.

Counseling offers a safe space to process the changes, explore new facets of identity, and build coping strategies. Therapy can help individuals reflect on what matters most, redefine personal values, and uncover new sources of meaning and fulfillment. Whether you're adjusting to an empty nest, starting over in a new city, or redefining your career path, RCC is here to walk with you as you rediscover who you are in the midst of change.
