Self-esteem is based on a belief system that is representative of how an individual perceives themselves. This perception is reflected in how a person describes themselves in terms of their ability to regulate emotions, the way in which they behave and the choices they make in all types of situations. Ultimately, a person's self-esteem is determined by themselves.

The discussion around life transitions in therapy is not limited to particular issues. Since life transitions occur over a person's lifespan, therapeutic discussions can revolve around figuring out an individual's interests and how they align with their life goals. This is why, at times, there becomes a focus on present and future personal development and growth. The conversation around life transitions in a therapeutic setting, can have a focus on a person's academic and career path. Having thoughtful and collaborative conversations about life transitions when in therapy, will allow for a greater understanding of a person's wants and needs.

It can be easy enough for there to be a negative association when it comes to life transitions. An aspect of life transitions is a lack of control. With this lack of control, there can be a hesitancy to embrace the changes from a life transition. This in part, is why the perception of a life transition is about avoiding it, as there are always problems that come with the transition.

It can be difficult for a person to make a decision that changes the direction of their life. A decision can be impulsive or thought-out. With each type of process of a decision, there is an inevitable impact, whether that be positive or negative. The type of impact on a life transition can be the person having new experiences, intentionally changing their lifestyle, and there being feeling of uncertainty and disappointment. No one life transition is the same, therefore how it occurs and what is being different, can be unique to any one person.
