Are you facing a significant transition? Maybe it's related to a relationship, parenting, a career, a move, downsizing, health or loss. It may be a transition you have been contemplating or one you were put into unexpectedly. Whatever the circumstances, transitions bring change that move us outside of our comfort zone and can leave us feeling out of balance.

I enjoy empowering my clients to solve real-life problems that hinder them from living the life they want. Clients have said that they enjoy my supportive, yet more direct and conversational approach to therapy. I am a caring clinician who will bring intensity and humor to the therapeutic relationship. My practice is a good fit for individuals who are looking to make real change in their lives. Change can be scary, in fact, as humans, we will often choose misery over change, but through strengthening your insight and building trust in your intuition, you can find the courage and confidence to create the life you want.

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.
