I have a doctorate in clinical social work and have served as a consultant to the Family Division of the New Jersey Superior Court, focusing on the emotional needs of children and parents during the process of separation and divorce.
Nothing in life is permanent; dealing with change and loss is inevitable. I believe that how we cope with these life transitions often defines who we are and who we will become. Working with people dealing with grief and loss, as well as with people in the arts confronting creative challenges, has been the focus of my practice for over 30 years. I've also worked extensively with young people who are gifted but considered "quirky" or socially awkward, with the goal of helping them realize the value of what they have to offer others.

I am a trauma specialist who can help you recover from childhood trauma, sexual abuse, addiction, depression, and anxiety using talk therapy or EMDR (an effective approach that reduces the triggering power of traumatic memories). My clients have often had challenging childhoods, and may currently be navigating relationship breakup, divorce, family conflict, or abuses within a faith community. Many also want to change their relationship with alcohol or drugs, or to process the impact of a loved one’s addiction.

I love to work with high conflict couples on the brink of divorce and individuals transitioning to life after divorce.
Nobody could have prepared you for the pain of being in a high conflict or sexless marriage. You are either arguing all the time or avoid difficult topics altogether because you know that they will end in conflict. Your relationship feels tense like you are walking on eggshells. The resentment is building and you are beginning to ask yourself if this is the life you want anymore. You desire intimacy and connection but the emotional distance makes it feel impossible. Does this sound familiar? Visit my website or click here to book a free 20 min consult with me: cultivatetherapyteam.clientsecure.me/request/clinician

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.
