Starting Divorce counseling

What is Divorce counseling?

Thriveworks divorce counseling in West Hartford, CT 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?

Couples therapy and marriage counseling are designed to help couples work through the problems in their relationship. The reality, though, is that sometimes couples therapy or marriage counseling leads people to the decision that it’s time to separate. Or, sometimes two people decide on their own that their relationship isn’t viable and they are better off not together. In these instances, divorce counseling can prove incredibly valuable during any stage of the divorce process.

“Some people believe holding on and hanging in there are signs of strength. However, there are time when it takes much more strength to know when to let go and then do it.” –Ann Landers

Divorce counselors are trained to help couples move through the divorce process the best that they can. In other words, they help people make important decisions, process their emotions, develop effective communication, build a cordial relationship post-divorce, and move forward with the right tools to heal and find happiness again. If you are in Hartford County, you can find this professional guidance at Thriveworks Counseling. Thriveworks Counseling in West Hartford has divorce counselors on staff who are able to provide you with the individualized divorce help and support you’re looking for. You can reach us at (860) 553-3374.

What Can I Expect from the Divorce Process? Can Divorce Counseling Help?

Divorce typically means separating from someone who you’ve grown close to and spent a lot of time with. Naturally, this means that the divorce process will come with many emotions that we’d rather not experience. Don’t worry, a divorce counselor can help you process and work through the following:

  1. Sadness and anger: It is likely to feel sad as well as mad during the divorce process. You might simply feel sad or angry about the end of your marriage or you might have resentment toward your ex. In any case, a divorce counselor can help you process and communicate these emotions as needed.
  2. Regret: Many people experience regret at some point during the divorce process. They look back on their marriage and think, “If only we had done this,” or, “That was wrong of me, I shouldn’t have done that.” A divorce counselor can help you work through this regret and guilt.
  3. Acceptance: Some people accept the reality of their situation early on, while others accept their divorce much later. In either case, one of our counselors will offer you the guidance and support that you need to accept the end of your marriage and move forward toward greater happiness.

Your Thriveworks divorce counselor or therapist will assess your specific needs and then design your experience in counseling to best help you. We understand that every person, every relationship, and every divorce is different. For this reason, we’ll create a customized treatment plan just for you. Do you feel ready to start divorce counseling and get the help you need? Reach out to Thriveworks Counseling right now.

I love the format of telehealth in the evening. At a time where it's so challenging to find Psychiatrists, Thriveworks has been so easy to work with. And Ericka is lovely; easy to work with, easy to talk to, trustworthy, and very helpful.
