Shohreh ("Sho-ray") Schmuecker
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Divorce can bring a wave of emotions such as grief, anger, relief, loneliness, and uncertainty. It is a deeply personal experience that can shake your sense of identity and leave you wondering how to move forward.
As a compassionate and experienced counselor, I provide a supportive space to help you process what you are feeling, rediscover your sense of self, and begin to rebuild a life that feels meaningful and grounded. Whether you are coping with the end of a long relationship or adjusting to new routines, you do not have to do it alone.
This may be a time of great change, but it can also be the beginning of something more authentic and empowering. In session, we will explore and process your feelings and emotions around the divorce or separation. My intention is creating a safe space to allow you room to explore your complex feelings and to honor your specific experience.
