Therapy can help during times of life’s transitions. We offer support and guidance as you navigate a career change, parenthood, moving, divorce, empty nest, or other transitions.
Divorce, career change, empty nest, retirement, graduation – these and similar times of big changes can be powerful motivators for personal growth. Although it is normal to experience sadness, fear, confusion, or grief during these times, we at Acheron believe you can harness the power of a transition as you process the experience. We offer comfort and sanctuary during difficult times, as well as the expertise to help you find your way into the new you on the other side.
We understand the emotions that are natural companions to life transitions, and we provide professional support and guidance tailored to your needs. Acheron therapists offer treatment for those going through any kind of life transition. We are conveniently located in lower Manhattan, near Tribeca, Chelsea, Greenwich Village, and other downtown neighborhoods. Our beautiful offices are easy to reach by multiple subways and buses from anywhere in the New York metropolitan area. We offer remote sessions for those unable to travel to our downtown offices or who prefer the privacy and comfort of home for appointments. Please contact us for a free consultation. We will match you with the best therapist to help with your life transition.


We all go through transitions in life, although the changes are as individual as you are. Not everyone marries or divorces, changes jobs or living situations, becomes a parent or adjusts to an empty nest. But all of us change: We grow up, change from dependency to adulthood, and navigate the inevitable changes that come with maturity and aging. Much of that happens gradually, but there are times of major transitions that can be very stressful. Therapy can help you understand your choices, adjust to new life circumstances, and heal from any sense of loss over your former life.

When it comes to navigating your big life changes, there’s no “one-size-fits-all” solution. Each treatment is as individual as you are. The right approach for you will start with understanding your situation, your goals, and your lifestyle. Together we will build the skills you can use to help you during the most challenging of times.

When we talk about life transitions, we mean any one of the big changes we all go through as we get older. Typical life transitions are graduations, marriage, becoming a parent, changing careers, moving to a different city, confronting an empty nest, or retirement.
Life transitions can make us confront ourselves in new ways, or can trigger feelings and memories that can be difficult to face. Even good transitions can trigger emotions and doubts that need to be processed.
A therapist can help you understand the feelings and worries you experience during a time of change. Using evidence-backed therapy techniques, Acheron specialists can guide you through a transitional time and help you navigate the changes. We offer individual therapy for those who need one-on-one support as well as group therapy for those who would benefit from a shared experience.
