You want a life different from what you have, but don’t know how to start. Your relationships have not been fulfilling and you are left believing something is wrong with you. The divorce left you confused about what you want in life because the marriage didn’t work. Your friendships feel conditional and you want to be authentic, but don’t know how the people in your life are going to react. Feeling stuck has become a daily experience and you see people around you making changes, so you know it’s possible, you just don’t know how. You are left thinking this is not the life you wanted, but you also aren’t sure what life you want.

Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over two decades of experience. I've worked extensively in private practice and university/college settings. My expertise lies in addressing career indecision, career anxiety, assisting women returning to the workforce after divorce or loss, managing career transitions, layoffs, and underemployment concerns. I also support clients facing toxic work environments, offering guidance to navigate these challenges. During uncertain times, having an objective counseling professional to assist can provide valuable reassurance in identifying and addressing pressing issues.

I was born in Nicaragua and came to the US as a young child, experiencing life as a first-generation Latino-American. Growing up, I didn't face significant culture shock like my parents and siblings. My main struggle was balancing Spanish and English, as I had to become fluent in English for school while maintaining my Nicaraguan culture and language, thanks to my supportive parents. I grew up in S. California, obtaining a BA degree in psychology from CSUN and a MA degree in psychology from Antioch University in Santa Barbara. For 14 years, I worked at Ventura County BH (VCBH), providing BH services for the severely mentally ill.

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.
