Divorce
Dr. Lynn E. O'Connor
Therapist, PhD
Dealing with divorce is a difficult and sometimes devastating experience. I help clients challenged by the legal system as they face the divorce process itself and by the psychological difficulties they have to master. I have been studying guilt and self-blame for 30 years as a researcher, teacher, and clinician. Divorce is often accompanied by overwhelming feelings of guilt. Working collaboratively with my clients, using self-compassion and mindfulness, helps to reduce the suffering guilt causes them and allows them to move forward with greater optimism.

Marianne Albina
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT # 139542
With clients, I explore the personal, external, and relational stories that have shaped the marriage and its dissolution, along with the hopes clients have for moving forward. In doing so, we focus on reclaiming the clients' agency beyond the marital state and delve into neglected narratives about their gifts, dignity, and value. This process empowers individuals to re-frame their experiences, fostering a renewed sense of self-worth and direction post-divorce.

Sara Denman
Psychologist, Psy.D
Although I do not work with couples, I do work frequently with people adjusting to life during and after a divorce. It can feel like a failure or the death of a dream of the perfect, intact family. Sometimes it is hard to picture a new normal so coming up with new identity and plans for the future is helpful. Working with an ex partner to co-parent can bring even more challenges but there are ways to help reduce conflict and mange the new life well.
