Divorce Counseling
With divorce counseling, we work together in a step-by-step process to not only find healthy ways to resolve your current challenges, but also help you overcome and move through your emotions.
Going through a divorce is tough—there’s no way around it. It’s the end of the future you once imagined, and with that comes a mix of emotions: regret, grief, uncertainty, and even relief.
Together, we’ll navigate these feelings and help you process the remorse and grief that often accompany divorce. You don’t have to go through this alone.
We’ll also focus on how to show up as a positive role model for your children, helping them see that divorce, while difficult, can be handled with grace, strength, and emotional awareness.
Throughout this process, I’ll provide the emotional support you need—whether that’s talking through the agreement you’ve reached, unpacking the emotions that come with it, or figuring out how to communicate with your soon-to-be ex in a way that’s healthy and productive.
Divorce is a transition, but it doesn’t have to define you. Let’s work together to help you move forward with clarity, confidence, and a sense of peace.
6 Ways I Help You Through the Divorce Process
1. Managing Your Behavior—Not Theirs
Divorce can bring out strong emotions, and it’s easy to get caught up in reacting to your ex’s actions. But the goal isn’t to control them—it’s to stay centered and respond in a way that feels healthy for you. I help you navigate your emotions so you can handle the situation with clarity and self-respect, no matter how they behave.
2. Expect the Unexpected—Riding the Emotional Roller Coaster
Even if you think you know how your ex will react, divorce is a new and emotional experience for both of you. People can act in ways you never expected. To help you feel more in control, I’ll guide you in preparing for difficult conversations—like writing down what you want to say so emotions don’t take over in the moment.
3. The Power of Forgiveness
Forgiveness isn’t about excusing what happened—it’s about freeing yourself from the weight of anger and resentment. Letting go doesn’t happen overnight, and it’s not always easy, but over time, it can help you move forward without carrying emotional baggage into your future.
4. Bringing the Future into the Present
Right now, it may feel impossible to imagine a life beyond this, but I promise, there is one. Together, we’ll start envisioning what your next chapter looks like—whether that means a fresh start in a new home, rediscovering your independence, or simply finding moments of peace in your day.
5. Focusing on YOU
This transition is about reclaiming your life. We’ll talk through how to move forward, manage co-parenting challenges, and break old relationship patterns so that if and when you’re ready for a new relationship, you’re in a healthier, stronger place.
6. Setting Achievable Goals
Healing takes time, but having clear short- and long-term goals can make it feel more manageable. Whether it’s small steps toward emotional recovery or bigger plans for your future, I’ll help you set a path that keeps you moving forward in a way that feels right for you.
Divorce is a journey, but you don’t have to walk it alone. Let’s take this step together.
