Making the decision to end your marriage is difficult, even when you and your spouse are in agreement that it is for the best. There’s no doubt that it can be a process wrought with strong emotions and grief. Ending a relationship can create a deep sense of loss and sadness.

At CNSL, our divorce counselors are here to provide support during this difficult time. Reach out to us today to learn more about how we can assist you.

What Is Divorce Counseling?

Divorce counseling can take various shapes and forms and will likely look very different for each couple or individual who participates in it. For example, divorce therapy could involve a couple who has already made the decision to divorce and needs help working through the terms of the divorce or learning how to communicate and co-parent children in a healthy way after the divorce. Or, couples might seek divorce counseling because they’re unsure about divorce and need to work with a professional to talk through the decision.

In other cases, an individual may choose to work with a divorce therapist because they are going through a divorce or have recently gone through a divorce and need to process their feelings and emotions related to that. Divorce can be very traumatic and, in some people, may result in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Even if you are ready for divorce, it can still be painful to experience loss. Grief is a normal emotion following a divorce.

What to Expect During Divorce Counseling

During therapy for divorce, there may be a multitude of strategies that your therapist recommends—much will depend on how the divorce has impacted your mental health and your goals for therapy. Some strategies for coping with a divorce that a therapist can assist you with include guided breathing exercises, meditation, expressing your feelings with those you trust, engaging in self-care, and exploring new perspectives and new points of view. If you are attending divorce counseling with your partner, then therapy may be focused on improving communication. On the other hand, if you are attending therapy on your own, it may focus on learning how to process your emotions in a healthy way.
