Divorce Therapists in Bellevue, WA

Accepting New Patients! Hello, my name is Nicole Buckley, Licensed Clinical Therapist. My philosophy is that when we feel understood by another, we are able to untangle the issues that lead us into therapy in the first place. This can help us to develop ourselves and our lives on a deeper level. Therapy is a special opportunity to be understood by another person. I also provide a warm, genuine and collaborative style to help my clients work towards change. My goal is to provide a safe place for healing and personal growth.

Have you discovered your partner's infidelity and you're not sure what to do next? Are thoughts of divorce and overwhelming emotions from the betrayal consuming you? If you're struggling to heal from your partner's affair, sexual addiction or infidelity, you might need the support of a specialist who understands. If you're questioning your entire relationship, I can help you heal by exploring what happened & helping you receive empathic understanding for your pain. Let's work together to develop a plan to ease the trauma of the betrayal and create hope that your relationship can not only be saved but that you can thrive together.

As a fully certified Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist, and a Level 2 EFT Individual Therapist Joseph's approach is rooted in Attachment Theory. Joseph assists his clients to become fully aware of unrecognized, unshared, connective primary emotions and reactive, disconnecting secondary emotions. He helps couples, men, and women cultivate greater awareness and acceptance of emotion. With empathic support he will help you develop the ability to communicate primary and secondary emotion in powerful ways that will foster increased intimacy with partners, spouses, and others.

My practice is largely focused on family members who have been impacted by divorce or separation of parents and in particular, families who have been designated as high conflict. I offer parent coaching for parents with children of any age and post decree Parent Coordination/Case Management services. I offer skills training in areas such as Managing Emotions and Flexible Thinking (for advanced problem solving). Since 2001, I am able to provide coaching in communications with an ex-partner or spouse in order to decrease conflict.

Increasing conflict is making simple communication a real pain - you're alternating back and forth from explosive words to tense silence. Depression or anxiety is creeping up on you, and you know it's bad for the kids to sense the lack of stability. If you are tired of the same old argument with your partner, and are even throwing out the dreaded "D" word (Divorce) in the heat of it, I can help you get the clarity you need to decide if your relationship is worth saving - and to do what's needed to get things back on track.

You never imagined yourself in this position, and it is difficult to know where to turn and who can help. Trauma, addiction, divorce, blended family, and relationship dynamics impact everyone differently. You may be experiencing feeling overwhelmed and emotionally exhausted, questioning yourself, and losing direction. Together, we’ll focus on your overall well-being, not just the problems you bring to the table. Your experience and needs are unique, and your treatment should be individualized just for you.
