Therapists in Van Nuys, CA

So much of our happiness boils down to the relationships in our lives; it brings us our greatest joys or our most painful sorrows. Life transitions, both developmental (adolescence, young adults, mid-life) and experiential (cohabitating, marriage, parenting, divorce) can cause unexpected emotional and relational challenges and getting support through these transitions can be hugely beneficial. We all suffer from moments of shame, sadness, loss, confusion, anxiety, insecurity, and fear as we try to move through these developmental stages and life transitions, but you don't have to do it alone.

Let's face its: being human is tough, and so is life in the digital age. Even the best of us can end up feeling isolated, alone, and as if no one understands us. We all have moments of desperation and fear, can feel lost and stuck, and as if all avenues have been exhausted. We may grapple with thoughts of "I'm not good enough", and when we see others lives portrayed on Social Media, we cannot help but compare our own lives to theirs. However, we don't always see the whole picture, and relationships are unfortunately not as easy as a swipe on an app.
