Life Transitions
In-person in Naperville; virtual anywhere in Illinois.
“You will be able to figure it out. You might need help and that's okay.”
– Aaron Polsky, LCSW
What just happened—and who even am I now?
Everything’s changing, and it’s messing with your head.
You feel like you're supposed to have it figured out by now, but instead you're staring at the ceiling at 2am wondering if you’ve made a huge mistake.
It’s a cocktail of doubt, fear, perhaps some imposter syndrome, and “holy crap, is this my life?”
What healing starts to look like:
You stop spinning in the “what ifs” and start making decisions from a place of actual clarity.
Your confidence creeps back in—and it’s the real kind, not fake-it-til-you-make-it.
You figure out what matters, what doesn’t, and how to move forward without abandoning yourself.
Turns out, change doesn’t have to be a crisis. It can be a reset.
Why work with me?
I am here for the real stuff: grief over what you’re leaving behind, fear of what’s next, and all the identity WTF that comes in between.
Together, we’ll slow the chaos, untangle the noise, and help you step into whatever’s next without losing your mind—or your values.
Transitions are hard. But you don’t have to white-knuckle your way through them.
Who this type of therapy is for:
→ Folks navigating big changes (new job, breakup, move, identity shift)
→ People who feel like they’re starting over—or falling apart
→ Adults who are suddenly asking, “Is this it?”
→ Anyone who wants to feel more grounded and less like they’re winging it
→ Those who need a space to sort it out without being told to “trust the process”
