Gen X women (born between 1965 and 1984) are really struggling with issues in their personal lives and relationships, dealing with their finances, and managing their careers. “They’re smart.

“The complaints of well-educated, middle- and upper-middle class women are easy to dismiss as temporary, or not really a crisis, or #FirstWorldProblems. America, in the grand scheme of things, is still a rich, relatively safe country. (Syrian refugees do not have the luxury of waking up in the middle of the night worried about credit card bills.) Although many women are trying to make it on minimum-wage, split-shift jobs (and arguably don’t have so much a midlife crisis as an ongoing crisis), women overall are closing the wage gap. Men do more at home. We deal with less sexism than our mothers and grandmothers, and have far more opportunities. Insert your Reason Why We Don’t Deserve to Feel Lousy here.”
Life Transitions Counseling with Elaine Korngold
Individual growth is possible throughout the lifecycle and in a range of situations. Growth can include new spiritual insights, greater appreciation of life and relationships, the development of new skills and knowledge, reordered priorities, recognition of inner strength and deeper awareness, and reformed behaviors or lifestyle. If you are struggling with life transitions, counseling can rebuild your resilience and help guide you onto a better course. Therapy can rebuild your resilience and help guide you onto a better course.
In my practice, I offer Brainspotting therapy integrated with Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy to my clients to access the genius of our deeper emotional brain. During the healing process I am fortunate to observe how intelligent, inventive, and intuitive all human beings are. Creativity is revealed through their resilience, survival, and recovery. During each session I wait for the surprise and I am rarely disappointed.
