Balance.  Clarity.  Hope.

Divorce can be a very painful, challenging process. You may feel overwhelmed by feelings of anger, resentment, fear and stress as you navigate through these unknown waters. But even though you’ll have to make some tough decisions, this transition can also be an opportunity for positive personal growth.  If you can learn to stay emotionally and physically healthy, a divorce can actually expand your life rather than destroy it.

Divorce Relief™ provides individual counseling and coaching for people considering or going through a divorce as well as those who are beginning their post-divorce lives.

Through a positive, solution-focused and mindfulness-based technique, I help my clients learn healthy coping and self-care skills to build confidence, self-esteem and optimism during an otherwise difficult time.  I work with each client to create a clear, customized approach to transform negative feelings into positive ones. No matter where you are in the process, my goal is to help you replace fear and anger with balance, clarity and hope.

CONSIDERING DIVORCE PAGE

Contemplating divorce can be a scary and confusing mental process.  You might feel shame and responsibility for having thoughts about ending the relationship.  You might not be clear on why you’re not happy.  If you’re seriously considering this life-changing step, it’s important to remember that relationships are complex and they rarely end because of just one reason.  Getting clarity about why you’re in this position and what you really want from the relationship is key to making an informed decision.

Divorce Relief™ can help you:

• Figure out why couples therapy is not working for you
• Explore your tangled feelings about this decision and get clarity on them
• Explore your fears about ending the relationship
• Effectively create decision making strategies to determine your next best step
• Plan how/when to tell your spouse, your children, your extended family and friends

DIVORCE COUNSELING PAGE

Getting a divorce, even if it’s the healthiest choice, is a complex process. Communicating with legal and financial counsel while also coping with your own emotions and those of your children, family and friends can be overwhelming.  But although a divorce will have a dramatic impact on your life, that impact can be positive.

With Divorce Relief™, you’ll learn how to transform negative emotions into positive ones so you can reserve your emotional strength for the new life you build after the divorce. By collaborating with your legal and financial counsel, I can also help manage the pragmatic decisions that must be made at this time.

Divorce Relief™  can help you:

• Work through feelings of anger, shame and fear so that clear, healthy, long-term decisions can be made for you and your children
• Grieve the loss of your married life in a healthy way in order to move forward
• Make good decisions quickly
• Keep emotionally and physically healthy during this transition
• Prioritize and complete tasks for your lawyer, mediator or financial planner
• Figure out how to talk to your children about divorce and effectively parent them during their adjustment
• Begin thinking positively about the future
• Build a strong support system: lawyers, financial analysts, therapists, social supports, job counselors

REBUILD AND RENEW PAGE

After a divorce is final and all the legal and financial decisions have been put into action, you might still feel lost in your new life.  This is not unusual; the first two years after a divorce are considered the crisis period.  Adjusting to dramatic changes in your living situation, financial position and relationship can be difficult.  But how you handle stress during this time determines how effective you are at creating a happier life as you move forward. The more determined you are to take steps towards positive change during this period, the more successful you’ll be as time goes on. It’s critical to turn your challenges into opportunities for personal growth.

Divorce Relief™ can help you:

• Minimize the impact of divorce on your children by maximizing your emotional and physical health
• Make long-term, beneficial decisions
• Let go of anger and resentment to make room for more positive emotions
• Learn how to have a fulfilling life after divorce
• Establish your independence and increase confidence
• Reinvent yourself
• Return to work/make career change
• Learn how to date again
• Find new social supports
