With over a decade of training and experience in DBT, couples therapy (EFT), trauma therapy (EMDR), collaborative divorce, and forensically informed therapy, we can find an approach that works for you.
You, your pain and the challenges that brought you here matter. Life, relationships, family, work, and just being human can be overwhelming and confusing. Sometimes it is difficult to see through the mental mazes our minds create. Sometimes intense emotions block our ability to see clearly. I offer a non-judgmental and honest space to explore your experiences. I believe each person can find the peace, fulfillment, and answers they seek and am honored to walk beside them on that journey. One of the most significant pieces to a good therapeutic experience is the “fit” between you and your therapist. I am caring and competent.

Life changes and events can lead to feelings of loneliness, heartbreak, and hopelessness. These feelings can often seem overwhelming and never-ending, leading to emotions that suggest no visible solution or exit. In these states, isolation may seem like an easier option compared to seeking understanding from others, who may not fully "get it". My goal is to explore positive coping mechanisms and strategies to make challenging experiences more manageable, and take client's on a personalized journey tailored to meet their unique needs, abilities, and goals.

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.
