DIVORCE - Going from "I Do", to "I Don't", to "I’m Divorced" is something that people don’t anticipate when they get married. However, it is estimated that nearly fifty percent of marriages end in divorce and divorce is ranked as the second most stressful life event a person can experience. Thinking about getting separated, going through the process, and learning how to transition into post-divorce life is a difficult road - and is overwhelming. I can help you navigate this road. Your marriage may be ending but your life isn't over. Every end is a new beginning.
