Divorce
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
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.

Divorce
Ayden Ferstenberg
Psychologist, PsyD
The end of a marriage can bring a complicated mix of grief, anger, relief, uncertainty, and fear about what comes next. Alongside practical decisions, you may be questioning your identity, mourning the future you imagined, or struggling to make sense of how a relationship reached this point. I help clients process these experiences while navigating the emotional challenges of separation, rebuilding their lives, and making decisions that reflect who they are and what matters to them now. Whether you're contemplating divorce, in the midst of it, or adjusting to life afterward, therapy can help you move through this transition without losing yourself in it.

Dr. Mike Strand

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.
