Are you facing major life transitions and finding it challenging to cope? If you have experienced an emotional or behavioral reaction to an overwhelming event, you may be experiencing symptoms of adjustment disorder.
Life transitions are a normal part of our journey, yet they can pose significant challenges to our mental health and well-being. Imagine someone facing a significant life change—maybe they’ve moved to a new city, gone through a breakup, or experienced a major loss. These changes trigger a range of emotions, and that’s completely normal. After all, life is full of adjustments, like learning a new dance with every twist in the story. It’s during these times that our normal coping mechanisms may not be enough, and that’s where professional support comes in.
Adjustment disorder symptoms encompass emotional shifts like persistent sadness or anxiety, behavioral changes such as withdrawing from social interactions, physical effects like headaches or fatigue, cognitive challenges like negative thoughts, and possible strain on relationships or work/school performance. These reactions typically arise within three months of a stressor’s onset and can disrupt daily life.
Children and adolescents with adjustment disorder commonly exhibit a depressed/irritable mood, sleep disturbances, and poor performance in school.
Inner Peace Therapies focuses on helping individuals cope with significant changes in their lives, such as starting a new job, moving to a new city, facing the end of a relationship, or welcoming a new family member. These transitions can often provoke a depressed or anxious mood, challenging one’s ability to adjust smoothly. Our therapy provides strategies and support to manage these emotions effectively.
At Inner Peace Therapies, we believe in the power of equipping you with effective coping strategies to manage the stress and uncertainty that often accompany major life changes. Our experienced therapists specialize in helping you identify your strengths and develop new skills to navigate transitions with confidence and adjust to the new life.
At Inner Peace Therapies, we offer individual, couple, and family therapy to address symptoms of an adjustment disorder and to help reduce the impact of this adjustment on your or your loved ones functioning and improve overall mental health.
