Life transitions are decisive turning points where a familiar way of living dissolves before a new one has taken hold – a career change, promotion into leadership, becoming a parent, moving to another city, separation, retirement, or the loss of someone close. In this threshold phase, roles, routines and your sense of self are temporarily unsettled.
At TAF180 we accompany you through these shifts with a blend of psychological counselling, coaching and, where useful, occupational therapy – structured, practical and tailored to your situation in Berlin, Zürich or online worldwide.
High performers often feel a double bind during transitions: external expectations collide with high personal standards precisely when security and orientation are missing. The rapid change driven by AI and social transformation shortens the half-life of careers, skills and life models – so transitions pile up and overlap. The pressure between family and career intensifies at exactly these moments.
Our approach brings order to this dynamic. Building on the 180-Degree Model, we make your current direction visible, clarify values and resources, and treat the transition as a conscious re-orientation rather than a loss of control.
A new leadership role, job loss, self-employment or return from a break can feel uncertain and overwhelming.
Parenthood, children leaving home, separation or caring for relatives reshape priorities and identity.
Moving between Berlin, Zürich or internationally – new surroundings, missing networks, cultural adjustment.
Death, illness or the end of a chapter raise questions of meaning and emotional exhaustion.
“What is all this for?” – despite outward success, direction, motivation and inner calm are missing.
Disrupted sleep, rumination, irritability or decision paralysis accompany the phase of upheaval.
When a promotion or company change reorders identity and self-understanding.
From first-time parenthood to the empty nest – balancing care with your own path.
When shared life plans shift or a chapter comes to a close.
Moving from a defining professional role into a new, self-determined stage of life.
Between Berlin and Zürich – arriving, putting down roots and finding belonging.
People seeking stability and a viable next step after a loss.
We clarify your current situation, the transition ahead and your goal – confidentially and without time pressure.
Values, resources and patterns become visible. You see what should carry forward and what may change.
You make decisions, build routines and practise concrete steps for the new phase.
The new is stabilised. We secure progress and stay alongside you longer if needed.
Fehrbelliner Strasse 33, 10119 Berlin – central and easy to reach.

Support makes sense as soon as a transition weighs on you for weeks, affects your sleep or performance, or leaves you feeling stuck. You don't have to wait for a crisis – early guidance makes the transition easier.
It can be either. Depending on your load and goal, we work in a counselling-coaching or a therapeutic mode. In a first session we clarify together which framework fits you.
