Having been divorced myself, I understand the pain of loss, disappointment and uncertainty that divorce causes. I can offer you hope, healing and new passion for love and connections.
When working with clients going through divorce, I like to start with some mindfulness around the issue to gain a deeper understanding of the experience, from here there are many options, and I rely of the client's wisdom to guide me.
Get support to determine if you are considering or have decided to divorce. Support and help managing emotional, mental, physical, spiritual, and psychological stress are beneficial as you go through this process. Also, if you feel that you don't want to proceed to divorce and are thinking of a way to save the marriage, then therapy may help.
Treatment focuses on an emotion/focused approach to discernment and divorce counselling for couples to help navigate through conflict, separation, and divorce by improving communication and understanding to diffuse tension. Individual therapy focuses on providing emotional support to promote healing from relational abuse, violence, and relational trauma. Treatment also focuses recovering from betrayal and infidelity.
For those couples in the process of separation or divorce, counselling offers a focused, time limited opportunity to review the relationship as well as manage and negotiation through the process successfully. We also offer assistance and effective strategy building in dealing with any children involved. This ultimately makes the separation much healthier by exploring the most positive method of moving forward.
Sometimes prior to or during a divorce process a couple have the opportunity to learn their patterns of relationship and either move toward and through divorce more gently and don't repeat the pattern with another partner, and sometimes they learn how to have a healthy relationship with one-another.

Individuals may go through several stages of mourning or grief. The emotional intensity of this period usually reaches a peak within the first six months of separation. Many people consider the separation phase to be the most difficult. This is the time between when you decide to get divorced and the date you actually get divorced. This period often presents the most uncertainties where you may want to seek help navigating these difficult times and seeking sufficient support for yourself.
