Divorce RecoveryDivorce is common but sometimes devastating. Recovery from it is often a difficult thing.
Drawing on my professional training coupled with my personal experience with divorce and that of my clients, I guide and support my clients through the complex transition from coupled to single. I have identified eight distinct stages we move through from the time one or both partners make the decision to end the marriage until we are ready to be successfully partnered in a healthy, satisfying forever relationship. These stages are detailed in my book, The Itty Bitty Break-Up Book. My clients and I begin our work in whatever stage they are in when they arrive at my office, and together we move forward from there. I help them grieve their losses, debrief their marriage for lessons learned, learn the ropes of navigating life as a single, including dating, relationship skills, networking, and mate selection. My divorce recovery work is also applicable to people who have been in significant and/or long-term relationships. |
