When the direction of your marriage becomes unclear, and doubts about the continuation of the relationship, or the prospect of divorce emerge, a sense of urgency to make life-altering decisions, like divorce, becomes overwhelming. It is sometimes difficult to take time to step back, reflect, and carefully consider the options for the future of your marriage. Differing levels of commitment to a marriage can create situations where one partner contemplates separation while the other partner seeks to preserve the marriage.

I believe in tailoring therapy to you; incorporating elements of your life and history so each meeting feels authentic, meaningful and paves the way for change. This might include first building a narrative around your current concern, working on strategies to tackle symptoms, or diving deeper into the past and the root of your concerns. Whatever the goal, you're in charge of how you want your therapeutic experience to look. I work with children and adults and have a special interest working with anxiety, ADHD, relationship concerns, divorce, trauma, mood disorders, emotional regulation, and suicidal ideation.

Hello, I have been in the field for over 18 years and enjoy working collaboratively with others to see their true potential. One of my specialties is working with people who have experienced trauma such as: childhood, single incident (ie. motor vehicle accident), or first responder. Besides trauma, I work with people managing life stressors such as work-related, separation or divorce, or perhaps dealing with the experiences of anxiety and depression. By working together through these typically challenging situations, it allows an opportunity to communicate, discuss and consider open possibilities for change.

Divorce Counsellors

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 behavioural, 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 behavioural 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.
