Why It Feels So Unsettling

Uncertainty Can Trigger Anxiety About the Future

Transitions often involve letting go of familiar routines, roles, or expectations. Even when change is wanted or necessary, it can bring grief, uncertainty, and fear.

When your future feels unclear, it's natural to want certainty. Therapy can help you navigate change without getting stuck in overthinking, avoidance, or self-doubt.
