You don't have to navigate the pain of betrayal and/or divorce alone.
Are you a betrayed partner grappling with the effects of infidelity? Are you facing divorce or trying to recover from divorce? Infidelity, relationship turmoil, and divorce can turn your world upside down, causing anxiety, stress, sleepless nights, lack of focus. It can even make you uncertain of who you are and what is real. All of this confusion leads to you feeling you that can't trust yourself or your own intuition.

My experience includes helping clients with their Grief/Loss caused by death by illness, completion of suicide, murder, miscarriage, health, infertility, finances, divorce, career, or natural disasters.
Dana Booth, LCSW specializes in grief/loss/trauma counseling with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families. Having 35 years experience in hospitals, schools, Grief Recovery Center and now private practice, I personally know how sudden, anticipated, or traumatic grief can change your world. Depression/Anxiety often accompany grief/transitions in life and it's a healthy choice to reach out for support. It's a privilege to walk along side one on his/her grief journey. It's too heavy of a burden to carry alone. EMDR and evidence based therapeutic tools can relieve some of the heaviness you carry.

I help adults who want breakthroughs in their individual lives or in their complicated family. Adulting requires problem-solving skills, including mastering emotions that may threaten to overwhelm us. I help individuals and couples who are ready to tolerate the anxiety of making changes in their own perspectives and behavior. Others may struggle with unwelcome changes (break-ups, losing a job, stepfamily issues) and need strategies to move forward with purpose and peace. I can help you, too. Although I highly value the intimacy of in-office sessions, I also offer Zoom sessions.

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.
