Corrie Blissit
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Divorce sucks. Many experience anxiety, depression, fear, anger, shame, guilt, and loneliness. 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.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I am deeply committed to supporting couples and families navigating the complex emotional landscape of divorce. My aim is to facilitate healthy communication, foster understanding, and encourage the necessary resilience during this challenging time. It's important to remember that while divorce marks the end of a marital relationship, it doesn't have to signify the collapse of a family structure. With appropriate therapeutic guidance, the process can lead to personal growth, emotional healing, and healthier relationships moving forward. My goal is to provide a safe space where each individual can express their feelings, concerns, and hopes for the future. Let's work together to minimize conflict and prioritize the wellbeing of everyone involved, particularly when children are part of the equation.

Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., L.M.F.T., International Life Coach, A.C.C.
The pain of divorce is devastating. Let’s catch the suffering and either work with your relationship to re-adjust to a feeling of wholeness or catch the grief of creating a new life after divorce. When working with a couple, I focus on healing through developing insight. I know this is difficult when you are facing many life struggles such as depression, addictions, affairs, grief, anxiety, and misaligned values. Through the vulnerability that comes up in therapy, healing is possible to an enormous degree.

Psychologist, Psy.D
Although I do not work with couples, I do work frequently with people adjusting to life during and after a divorce. It can feel like a failure or the death of a dream of the perfect, intact family. Sometimes it is hard to picture a new normal so coming up with new identity and plans for the future is helpful. Working with an ex partner to co-parent can bring even more challenges but there are ways to help reduce conflict and mange the new life well.
