Chris Tickner
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, MFT
Are you contemplating divorce? Have you and your partner already made the decision? We all think about leaving our current relationship. The grass always seems greener, and sometimes it really is. Good couples therapy never promises to save relationships! Instead, it helps both partners explore the depths of the relationship, so they are able to make clear and honest decisions about what to do next. I have had many couples enter my practice on the brink of divorce, only to find that some simple new tools for communication, intimacy, forgiveness, and shared purpose can bring them back together. Of course, sometimes divorce is the best option. Some relationships are not meant to last. And that's ok! That is not a failure, that is growth. Therapy can help with the process of leaving a relationship in a way that honors both of you, that sets you up to be good friends, with respect and care.

Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Whatever situation you find yourself in, divorce is something nobody wants to face. Sometimes out of necessity or pain, we find ourselves in a divorce and its a beast to navigate. It can be both painful and traumatic. Even if you are going through it out of necessity, it wasn't something you wanted from the beginning of the relationship. Nobody starts a relationship hoping for a divorce. Sometimes it happens and sometimes its necessary and if you are going through it then you may also be grieving the loss of the idea of the relationship you thought you had. Wherever you are in this process we can support you, call us today.

Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
Heroic courage and perseverance is required to get through the darkest parts of divorce, to finally re-establish a life that is full. Isolation and lack of support can make it even harder. The support of a skilled, experienced therapist can be a game changer in helping you get through the hardest parts. It is possible to recover from a difficult chapter of your life and go on to experience the best chapters yet. I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that are most effective in helping you manage and circumnavigate old unhelpful patterns, anger, trauma and pain, and helping you to reclaim the balanced, happy life you deserve.

Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT, CST
Divorce and separation can bring grief, anger, relief, regret, uncertainty, and questions about identity, responsibility, family, and the future. I work with this transition as both a relational and personal process. Our work is not only about getting through the ending. It is also about moving toward greater clarity, steadiness, self-respect, and a life that feels honest, meaningful, authentic, and aligned with what matters now.

Divorce sucks. Many experience anxiety, depression, fear, anger, shame, guilt, and loneliness. There are also financial negotiations, custody battles, and disappointments. With each stage of divorce, comes a new wave of emotional and mental stress.For some people, the divorce may come as a complete surprise and blow to one’s self esteem. Other’s choose to leave because they are dissatisfied. In both cases, there is a pervasive lack of cultural support as divorce is universally seen as something negative. Friends and family may judge the couple for “not trying hard enough”and people are quick to blame one or both partners for possessing relational flaws. As you deal with the loss of your marriage and the stigma it comes with, you may also feel you have lost yourself along the way.
Therapy not only provides a space to grieve and work through some of the emotional complexities, it is also a space where you gain insight into yourself and how you show up in relationships so you can do things differently.
