The Issues:
At The North Star Centre we understand the problems and concerns families
have when they relocate. Moving is a major life decision and is never easy.
Moving to a new place, with a different climate, culture, and lifestyle can be
overwhelming. At The Centre, we have had years of experience working with
families like yours. It is our goal to help families make a faster, more effective and healthier adjustment to their new lives.
The Choices:
The choices you make in the upcoming months will determine the length of time your
adjustment takes, the level of stress that you experience, and ultimately whether or
not your move succeeds. We provide a framework that enables families to make sense
out of the myriad of choices and feelings they face when moving to South Florida.
The Families in Transition Program will take you through a step-by-step approach that
maximizes your family’s strengths and abilities to deal with these changes.
No Two Families Are Alike:
Although no two families are alike, there are common threads that run through
everyone’s experience during a relocation process. Families are confronted by a
series of decisions that represent incremental steps in a larger transitional ladder.
The staff at The Centre is expert at guiding families through this disorienting
process. By illuminating each step, as well as discussing potential decision
outcomes, families are helped to realize their goals.

Our Services
- In a private ninety minute in-person or phone
consultation with a family expert you will learn
how to develop specific strategies to successfully deal with the stress and the
changes that come with moving.
- As these strategies are implemented, you, your partner, and your children
will start to feel more comfortable with your moving experience. Very quickly,
you’ll start to feel closer as a family and more able to enjoy your lives in your new home.
