Everyday life & relationships
Therapy for work stress & life transitions
A place to think clearly about work, change, and the everyday pressures of building a life that feels like your own.
You can bring the unfinished questions
Perhaps you have moved to a new city, started a demanding job, finished school, or reached a point where an old routine no longer fits. You may feel excited and unsettled at the same time. Therapy offers space to talk about the personal side of those changes without needing to arrive with a decision already made.
Dr. Tina Halabian works with emerging adults, young adults, early-career professionals, and adults navigating different chapters of life. The work can focus on a particular transition or the cumulative pressure of keeping up with everyday responsibilities.
What we can explore
Work & capacity
Expectations about availability, difficult conversations, confidence in a new role, and the space you want outside work.
Direction & identity
Career uncertainty, shifting priorities, and the meaning you attach to success or being a beginner.
Moving & belonging
Building connection, making new routines, and the mixed feelings that can accompany a fresh start.
Personal timelines
Feeling behind, comparing yourself with others, and deciding which goals are truly yours.
Support shaped around your situation
A session might involve talking through a difficult week, noticing a recurring expectation you place on yourself, or breaking a complicated choice into questions you can consider separately. You can discuss whether reflection, practical structure, or a combination feels most useful.
Work pressures also have real external causes. Therapy can help you understand your responses and options without assuming every difficulty can be solved by changing your attitude. Career, financial, employment, or legal questions may also call for advice from an appropriately qualified professional.
Common questions
Do I have to know what I want to change?
No. Feeling unsure, stretched, or ready for a different perspective can be a starting point. The consultation helps clarify what you are looking for.
Is this career coaching?
This page describes psychotherapy. Therapy can address stress, identity, uncertainty, relationships, and the emotional experience of work. It does not promise job placement or replace specialized career advice.
Can I start after moving to Los Angeles?
Yes, you can inquire about telehealth while located in California. Dr. Halabian also serves clients located in New York at the time of sessions. No physical office appointment is implied.
