Divorce: Navigating the Systemic Shift
Untangling the Past, Architecting the Future
Divorce is one of the most significant "life transitions" a human can experience. It is rarely just the end of a legal contract; it is a profound restructuring of your identity, your family system, and your future. In my practice, I provide a courageous and neutral space to navigate the overwhelm of uncoupling with dignity, curiosity, and emotional intelligence.
Honoring the Complexity of the Split
Whether you are in the initial stages of discernment or are navigating the aftermath of a finalized decree, we address the layers of the transition:
The Grief Cycle: Moving through the shock, anger, and deep sorrow of the "death" of a shared dream.
Co-Parenting Systems: Using Systems Theory to build a functional, healthy bridge between two homes, ensuring that the children’s needs remain central during the shift.
Identity Re-Formation: Answering the question, "Who am I outside of this 'we'?" and rediscovering your agency and voice.
A Clinical Approach to Uncoupling
With over 20 years of experience, I support individuals and couples through the various stages of divorce:
Discernment Counseling: A specialized space for couples who are "on the brink"—helping you decide with clarity whether to commit to repair or to begin the process of uncoupling.
EFT & Attachment Repair: Even in divorce, understanding your attachment styles can prevent "high-conflict" cycles and help you move through the process without further trauma.
Spiritual Deconstruction & Divorce: For those in religious or spiritual communities, divorce can bring a secondary layer of spiritual trauma or disillusionment. My background (M.Div/PhD) allows us to hold these spiritual questions alongside the clinical ones.
Transitioning with Integrity
I have a "special love" for working with high-profile "healers"—pastors and therapists—navigating divorce. I understand the unique pressure of maintaining a professional "helping" role while your personal system is in flux.
Divorce does not have to be a story of destruction. It can be a story of evolution, boundary-setting, and the courageous pursuit of a more authentic life.

Heather Champion
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Court Mediator
Divorce can be a very difficult time for couples and the loss of a marriage is just as painful as the loss of a spouse or parent. There is a lot of grief there. And then on top of all of that there are the legal proceedings and dealing with family court. As a certified family court mediator I fully understand the legal side of the divorce process and can both help guide you through it and help you process the emotions that surround everything that is happening. Unfortunately though I can't be both your mediator and your counselor.

Inspirational couples & relationship counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
The reason why I chose to work with couples in relationship is to avoid the breakup of family and mend past attachment traumatic wounds affecting the relationship. Many couples struggle to develop normal attachment with their partners and because of that they have developed these negative attachments which will often developed and become dysfunctional in the relationship and this triggering divorce.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
There are points in a relationship when going your separate ways becomes the best option. But how do you know the best way to get through such a mess? Everyone has seen a couple suffer through an acrimonious divorce, and it’s clear no one wins. People often don’t think about couples or individual therapy because they are leaving the relationship, but that turns out to be a major oversight. Trying to understand one another in the process of divorce can alleviate deep hurts and circumvent major pitfalls in the process of ending the relationship.
Divorcing can often mean dividing assets and agreeing to custody solutions. This process can be excruciating for both parties. Even if you might feel a deep rage toward your partner, allowing each person to openly discuss their desires in a safe environment can be both refreshing and illuminating, cutting through the unimportant dribble to what really matters: moving on with your life in a way that allows each person to thrive. You can trust us to be sensitive to the deep pain of this situation and to carefully hold each person’s subjectivity in order to see you through to the other side.
If it feels as though you can’t be in the same room with your ex partner, we offer individual therapy for either or both people to work through the pain and even logistics of such an enormous life change.

Robin Kaye Stilwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., L.M.F.T.
No two divorces are alike, every person who goes through the process experiences it differently. Some divorces are relatively amiable , while some are traumatic and high conflict. In every case, it is life changing. When children are involved, the stakes are higher and the potential for stress and anxiety is greater.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Divorce can be both a gift and a curse; in any case, it is rarely easy, particularly when children are involved. As my own therapist once advised many years ago when I worked through my own divorce, you cannot expect to dismantle a family without having to walk through the rubble. I help couples and individuals work on their relationship yet also recognize when letting go and parting may be a healthier solution. Helping individuals divorce mindfully and with compassion is the goal from my perspective.

Peter C. Jackson, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
Navigating a divorce can feel overwhelming, touching upon deep emotions of loss, betrayal, or confusion. In our work together, I provide a safe and non-judgmental environment to process these complex feelings, allowing you to grieve, gain clarity, and find a path forward. We will focus on understanding the impact of the separation, strengthening your inner resources, and developing practical strategies for co-parenting (if applicable) and rebuilding your life with empowerment and self-trust. The goal is to move through this transition towards a renewed sense of peace and personal strength.

Katherine Coder
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, PhD, LPC, LMHC
Divorce can be deeply painful personally and has impacts on other family members and an individual's wider community. Often the circumstances motivating divorce are traumatic and can involve betrayal, abuse, and conflicts of all kinds. Tending to the pain of divorce is multifaceted and different kinds of support are often helpful. Having support to walk through what has happened and is happening, support with the grief of loss of the family that was built, nervous system support for a nervous system under stress, and coaching around how to take care of any children in the marriage as the separation occurs can all be important. I have experience working with the family law courts so I understand some of the legal considerations that need to be taken into account as well.

Dr. Howard Chusid
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ed.D, LMHC, NCC, MAC
I have been certified as a Family Mediator for over 15 years. I have worked with many couples who required a divorce in order to move on. In addition, I am certified in Collaborative Divorce, in which I serve as either the facilitator or the mental health professional on the collaborative panel. The divorces I am involved in don't have screaming, or name calling, or abusiveness involved. We are all humans, and deserve to be treated as such. In many of my divorces, the parties remain close and are able to communicate after the divorce is complete for the benefit of the family.

Root & Rise Clinical Specialists
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R
Our holistic approach to divorce work combines the structure of CBT, the emotional depth of EFT, and the forward-focused clarity of Law of Attraction principles. We help clients identify and shift the thought patterns that fuel anxiety or hopelessness (CBT), process the overwhelming emotions and attachment wounds that surface during separation (EFT), and begin rebuilding a vision for their life that aligns with their values, worth, and future goals (Law of Attraction). By addressing both the emotional and cognitive layers — and incorporating intentional mindset work — we support clients in finding stability, reducing reactivity, strengthening self-trust, and creating a grounded path forward. This integrative model gives clients both the tools and the insight they need to move through divorce with resilience, clarity, and empowerment.

Lisa C. Holder
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC
The life transition of divorce can be very overwhelming and paralyzing to each individual. The hopes and dreams you once had with someone has been shattered and the love and joy you once felt may have turned to sadness and despair. The difficulties divorce brings can range from financial pressures, custody issues, and emotional trauma and pain. If this is the situation you find yourself in, I would be happy to help you process the adjustments you are going through, as well as support you during the process of divorce during this difficult time.

Lisa Hawkins-Jack
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW
for many people, the idea of beginning your life again alone is an extremely frightening thing to do. Sometimes it’s vital to have somebody on your side without judgment who couldn’t really listen to you in an unbiased way. Talking to a therapist during times of divorce can be a relief and make you feel so much less alone.
