Divorce, or the legal separation of people who were once married, can be difficult for partners, children, and any other family members involved. Counseling is helpful for each partner and any children affected by the change.
Available Treatment Options
Partners benefit from identifying and processing emotions in therapy. There is often a significant amount of hurt on one or both sides. Children of divorce may struggle to understand why their parents are separating, or they may be caught in a custody battle. Regardless of the specific situation, therapists can assist children in processing their thoughts and feelings and remind them that their parents’ decision isn’t their fault.
Therapists Who Specialize in Helping Those Who Struggle With Divorce
I am a California Licensed Clinical Psychologist who provides psychotherapy to a wide range of clients with different concerns, from mild depression to severe and persistent mental health issues.

I support clients in exercising their own free...

While we all have unique histories and personaliti...

The greatest challenges we face in life can sometimes be difficult to manage. My goal is to help individuals, families, and couples embrace life’s transitions/changes, overcome obstacles, and develop new ways to cope.

Many people come to me with stories of pain caused by the loss of human connection or relationships.

We believe that everyone needs someone to listen, to feel understood and needs help to see the bigger picture without being judged.
