Change and Transition

Yoshida Hiroshi, Kumoi Cherry Trees (Kumoi sakura)

Sometimes the ground gives way beneath us. A long anticipated promotion falls through. We suffer an injury or receive a difficult medical diagnosis. We divorce or separate from the person we thought would be our life partner. We get laid off or fired from our job. A loved one dies. We lose our spiritual faith. The list goes on.

We experience feelings of grief and anger; resentment and despair; disorientation and groundlessness. All of our unspoken contracts with life have been broken. It can feel like the waves keep crashing down on us before we can catch our next breath.

And yet it is from these very painful transitions that new life is born. Radical change does not happen linearly or incrementally; it emerges from the transformative fire of major transitions.

I provide coaching and support for people going through life transitions. I am a trained grief counselor, and have found that the principles of processing the loss of a loved one apply to other major life transitions: be it a career change, job loss, relationship transition, or change in identity. I will support you through letting go of what has passed, tolerating the groundless uncertainty of the in-between, and contacting the early glimmerings of what is emerging.

You were meant to be there for people in a compassionate way. It shows in the way you carry yourself and how you interact with everyone, not just your clients. You are warm, insightful, thoughtful, and intuitive, completely without judgment. People feel heard and seen in your presence and there is no greater gift.

My experience with Kristin went beyond expectation in every way. She has an incredible capacity to actively listen, hold space, and then calmly offer guidance as you walk through different topics. Her integrative approach allowed me to explore parts of myself I either didn't know about or hadn't touched in a long time. She showed me how many resources I have within myself, and that is a gift I will forever be grateful for. My time with Kristin was enlightening and transformative - and I cannot recommend her enough.

I help clients shed what is no longer serving them, fully express their gifts, and shape the life they’ve been longing for.
