Life Transition Counselling.
Support when the old version of life no longer fits
Some changes are chosen. Others arrive with terrible timing and no instruction manual. Even a welcome transition can unsettle your routine, relationships and sense of who you are.
Kerry Abbott provides life transition counselling in Mandurah for people navigating retirement, separation, career change, redundancy, menopause, empty nesting, relocation, grief and changing family roles.
Counselling gives you time to understand what the change means, work through competing emotions and decide how you want the next part of life to look.
When Change Affects More Than Your Calendar.
You can attend from Impello’s professional office in Mandurah or connect by telehealth. Mobile counselling is available across the Mandurah region, including Halls Head, Greenfields, Meadow Springs, Falcon and Dawesville.
Practical Change
A major transition can alter your identity, relationships, confidence and sense of purpose. You may feel relieved and lost at the same time. Human beings are inconveniently capable of holding more than one emotion at once.
Retirement
Leaving work can bring freedom, but it may also remove structure, social connection and a familiar role. Counselling can help you consider purpose, relationships and how you want to spend this stage of life.
Separation or divorce
The end of a relationship can affect your home, finances, family and imagined future. Kerry offers support while you process the loss and begin making decisions about what comes next.
Finding Your Footing Again.
Life transition counselling gives you room to understand what you are leaving behind, what remains important and what may need to be rebuilt.
Sessions may explore:
Identity and changing roles
Grief for what has ended
Confidence and decision-making
Loneliness and social connection
Purpose, values and priorities
Relationships affected by the transition
Practical next steps
Kerry’s background in counselling and coaching allows sessions to move between emotional processing and forward planning when the time is right.
