Families, formed of blood or love, contribute to what shapes us. I help families heal and deal. Couples — married/not, same‑sex/not, platonic/romantic — get tangled in webs; I help unweave them. They may settle into parallel lines, and sometimes they part ways. Either way, there is healing. That is the work we do together.
When at the end of your rope, holding on can hinder progress. Together we can plan your landing and cut the rope. And, if needed, take a step backward, because a step backward is still a step. We can change the view and the narrative. Healing begins at the side‑door, where I’m waiting for you with the light on.

I do extensive work with family and divorce mediation cases, reunification of families, and co-parenting.
We are what and who we are primarily because of where we come from and from everything we have ever experienced. That provides us with both positive and negative qualities about ourselves.

It's not easy. It's not pretty. But it is worth it! Here at PCCS, we believe in you and want to help you believe in yourself.

Divorce Therapists
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.
What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.
When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.
How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
