Kasey Scharnett King
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S, CST
Divorce is not just a legal process—it is an emotional and relational transition that can bring grief, anger, fear, and uncertainty. Divorce counseling supports individuals and couples who are navigating separation, considering divorce, or working to redefine their relationship post-divorce.
We help clients process emotions, clarify decisions, and communicate more effectively during this transition. Whether the goal is to separate with clarity, co-parent more effectively, or find stability after a divorce, therapy offers support and structure during a time of significant change.

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you feel on edge, anxious, irritable, or just can't relax, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats anxiety and related conditions typically using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and exposure therapies. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience working with clients who are going through separation or divorce. I also have worked extensively with children and adolescents whose parents are separating. Many family members in this situation find it extremely helpful to work with a therapist in order to help them navigate as best they can this stressful and distressing process. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to our work together, and because of this I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming for many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see.

Richard Scott, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Going through a divorce can be incredibly stressful and painful (to say the least). It can bring up all kinds of emotions that can make it hard to function. It can get even more complicated when you consider the impact it can have on family, finances, kids, and more. Please give me a chance to help you find ways to cope effectively, rebuild, and move forward with your life.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
I take a compassionate and supportive approach to help indiviudals navigate the complex emotions involved in the process of a divorce. Using evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I assist clients in managing overwhelming feelings, reframing negative thoughts, and developing effective coping strategies. My approach is collaborative, meaning I work closely with clients to set goals that align with their values and needs, fostering a sense of agency and empowerment. For those with children, I place a strong emphasis on maintaining a stable and supportive environment for the family. I guide parents in addressing their children’s emotional needs while managing their own, using techniques from family systems theory to improve communication and co-parenting. By combining empathy with practical strategies, I help clients work through their emotions and focus on creating a positive and constructive path forward for themselves and their families.

MN Couples & Family Therapy
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
My specialization is in marriage & family therapy which means, inevitably, I also have extensive experience working with divorce, blended families and post divorce challenges. I have completed mediation training to better understand the types of issues the divorce process poses for couples and to help them understand what they can expect. I have trained in collaborative divorce through the MN Collaborative Divorce Alliance.
For those couples with a mixed agenda (one couple would like the marriage to persist and the other partner is unsure whether they have the energy or the will to continue to work on it), I am certified in discernment counseling. Discernment counseling is essentially decision making therapy, meant to be completed in 5 sessions or less, to determine if the next steps would be separation/divorce or committing to at least 6 months of "all in" couples therapy to determine what is possible.

The end of a relationship often brings grief, uncertainty, and significant life changes.

Dr. Tracy Mallett
Psychologist, Psy.D., L.M.F.T., Licensed Psychologist
Divorce is one of life’s most difficult transitions, affecting not only partners but also children, extended family, and the entire sense of home and stability. I specialize in helping individuals, couples, and families navigate the emotional, relational, and practical challenges that accompany divorce — before, during, and after the process.
My work focuses on emotional stabilization, clear communication, boundary setting, and healthy co-parenting. For individuals, therapy provides a supportive space to process grief, anger, and loss while rebuilding identity and confidence. For parents, I help create a framework for cooperative parenting that prioritizes children’s emotional well-being and minimizes conflict.
When appropriate, I also provide family or joint sessions to support smoother transitions, improve communication, and establish respectful new family structures. Using cognitive-behavioral and family systems approaches, we work together to reduce emotional reactivity, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and build strategies for resilience and forward movement.
My goal is to help clients move from chaos and hurt toward clarity, self-understanding, and peace, so they can begin the next chapter of their lives with strength and purpose.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for individuals navigating divorce, separation, relationship loss, and the emotional challenges that follow major life transitions. Divorce can bring grief, anxiety, depression, anger, loneliness, uncertainty about the future, and difficulty trusting again. Many people also struggle with identity changes, co-parenting stress, communication breakdowns, and unresolved emotional pain connected to the relationship.
Brad takes a holistic and personalized approach to divorce recovery counseling, helping clients process both the emotional impact of the relationship and any underlying trauma that may be contributing to difficulty moving forward. Therapy provides a supportive space to explore your personal history, understand emotional triggers, and work through grief, betrayal, and loss in a healthy and constructive way.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-focused counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to help clients heal from relational trauma, rebuild self-trust, and restore emotional stability. Therapy focuses on helping clients process painful experiences, reduce emotional distress, and develop healthier patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating.
Divorce often impacts trust, self-esteem, and the ability to feel emotionally safe in future relationships. Brad works collaboratively with clients to rebuild a strong sense of identity, improve emotional resilience, and develop healthier boundaries and communication skills. The goal is not only to heal from the past relationship, but to create a more grounded, empowered, and emotionally balanced future.
While talk therapy can provide support and insight, deeper healing often requires addressing the emotional wounds and patterns that may have been present long before or developed during the relationship. Brad’s approach focuses on lasting change rather than temporary relief.
Healing is possible after divorce. With the right support, clients can move forward with clarity, confidence, and emotional freedom—no longer defined by past relationships, but empowered to build a healthier and more fulfilling life.

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Divorce is life-changing for everyone involved, even when it brings relief. I've worked with many individuals, families, and children on navigating the steps leading up to and the aftermath of divorce to help support adjustment and a sense of normalcy amidst all of the changes that divorce is sure to bring. This often includes grief processing and understanding of relational patterns/cycles for individuals, processing through difficult feelings and confusion for kids, supporting parents in helping their children to adjust to these changes, and helping adults navigate the new waters of co-parenting as they work to be aligned and consistent in their parenting approaches.

Divorce marks a profound turning point, signifying the end of one chapter and the uncertain start of another, often accompanied by feelings of loss, failure, and fear of what comes next.

Wayne G. Siegel, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, Clinical Psychology
Divorce is more than a legal process—it’s a profound emotional transition that can disrupt identity, routines, and relationships. Whether you're in the midst of separation or managing the aftershocks months or years later, I offer structured, evidence-based support to help you regain clarity, confidence, and direction.
My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Schema Therapy to address the emotional, cognitive, and behavioral dimensions of divorce. We’ll explore grief, identity shifts, co-parenting stressors, and the impact on self-worth—while developing practical tools to rebuild your life with intention. For clients facing high-conflict dynamics or perfectionistic tendencies, I also offer values-based decision support and emotionally intelligent communication strategies.
Therapy is collaborative, nonjudgmental, and tailored to your strengths. Whether you're a healthcare professional, entrepreneur, or someone quietly navigating this transition behind a high-functioning exterior, we’ll build a roadmap that honors your history and equips you for what’s next.
