Or with estrangement or divorce.
Maybe you're tired of being on the anxiety roller coaster.
Or you've been dropped smack dab into the land of grief and you feel lost. You may be grieving a death or some other kind of loss: a marriage, a friendship, your health...
Or maybe what you've lost is you. You don't know how you got so far away from who you are and the life you wanted.
Or maybe you don't know what's going on with you or what you need, you just know you need something other than this, something better than this.

Not feeling heard, not knowing the next step or not being where you thought you'd be at this part of your life is hard. Like really hard. In our world today, we're constantly told what we "should" have achieved. My clients bring to sessions struggles with setting boundaries or feeling heard by those in their lives, wrapping their mind around a major life change like the end of a relationship/figuring out what life looks like post-retirement. They need a space where they can be truly heard, process what's holding them back and connect with what will make them feel fulfilled and connected to the version of themselves they want to be.

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.
