Adjustment And Transition Management Counselling in Kenya
Change is situational. Transition, on the other hand, is psychological. It is not those events, but rather the inner reorientation or self-redefinition that you have to go through in order to incorporate any of those changes into your life. Without transition, a change is just a rearrangement of the furniture. Unless transition happens, the change won’t work, because it doesn’t take.

- Are you changing location from your country to another country?

Adjustment And Transition Management Counselling in Kenya
Adjustment and Transition Management Counselling is a type of support offered to individuals experiencing major life changes or challenges that require them to adapt to new circumstances. It focuses on helping people understand, cope with, and navigate the psychological, emotional, social, and practical difficulties that arise during transitions. It helps people cope with significant life changes, guiding them to manage stress, build resilience, and find positive ways to move forward.
This is the process of adapting to new situations, conditions, or environments in life. It may involve changes in behaviour, attitudes, or coping strategies to maintain balance and well-being.
