Starting Divorce counseling

What is Divorce counseling?

Thriveworks divorce counseling in Cambridge, MA can help couples understand if they want to divorce or help them move forward post-divorce. Either way, it helps them navigate conflicts and/or tough conversations that pertain to their relationship and individual selves.

How does Divorce counseling work?

Divorce counseling at Thriveworks is tailored to each couple and the individuals that make up that couple. It works by offering…

  • Tools to work through conflicts and better manage negative feelings
  • Guidance in making the right decision if you're still in the process of considering divorce
  • Help with different stages of the divorce and separation process
  • A better understanding of what went wrong in the relationship
  • A third party perpsective that ensures both parties are heard

Is Divorce counseling conducted in person or online?

Divorce counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does Divorce counseling last?

The amount of divorce counseling sessions will vary from one person to the next, depending on their specific needs. However, it typically lasts for several weeks or months.

Need more help deciding?

Marriage is not easy, and sadly, sometimes ends in divorce. When a couple says their vows, they are planning to stay together forever. Newlyweds dream of a happily ever after, that too often, does not end that way. Divorce can be particularly hard on children. Depending on their age, they may have a great deal of questions and fears. Divorce is one of the major life stressors for a person of any age. Even if the decision to divorce was mutually agreed upon, it still creates a great deal of turmoil and upheaval in life. Living arrangements, finances, even social circles will most likely change. In many situations, your whole daily routine will be different.

You may feel embarrassed at the need for counseling after your divorce. This is normal, but completely unnecessary. Depending on how long you were married, that is how long you can expect to have an emotional response to the divorce. It is not an exact ratio, but can help you understand that it is necessary to be kind to yourself, allowing for a psychological adjustment. Whether you were married for a year or twenty years, the loss of the dream for your marriage and family is significant.

Thriveworks Cambridge divorce recovery counselors and psychologists are licensed mental health professionals, ready to help you create your new reality. We have appointments available within 24 hours for most new clients. We are ready to put our expertise to work for you.

I had been unable to make an appointment with a therapist for a long time. Everyone had a three month waiting list. I took a chance and made an appointment here. I love Hannah, she’s excellent, and I’m glad I found Thriveworks. It’s too soon for me to weigh in on the additional services Thriveworks offers but it seems good!
