John Jakubowski
Marriage and Family Therapist, MACP LPCC LMFT
Divorce is traumatic - even the amiable ones. Removing, or changing a significant other from your life can have deep affects on self-esteem, security and identity. I work with transitional clients to rebuild all of those aspects, towards a path of peace and foundational happiness.

Marianne Albina
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT # 139542
With clients, I explore the personal, external, and relational stories that have shaped the marriage and its dissolution, along with the hopes clients have for moving forward. In doing so, we focus on reclaiming the clients' agency beyond the marital state and delve into neglected narratives about their gifts, dignity, and value. This process empowers individuals to re-frame their experiences, fostering a renewed sense of self-worth and direction post-divorce.

Brad Byrum
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MBA, LMFT
As a relationship therapist, I know that sometimes relationships end. Sometimes they need to end. Sometimes both partners know this. Sometimes one partner knows it and the other wishes it weren’t true. Sometimes both partners wish it weren’t true and yet it is.
I work with individuals and couples who are living through an uncoupling. This can be a traumatic experience of grief, shame, anger, resentment, confusion and betrayal. I offer a way of working through the process of uncoupling in which we seek to make peace where peace is possible, healing what can be healed, and accepting the ending of a relationship.

Dr. Lynn E. O'Connor
Therapist, PhD
Dealing with divorce is a difficult and sometimes devastating experience. I help clients challenged by the legal system as they face the divorce process itself and by the psychological difficulties they have to master. I have been studying guilt and self-blame for 30 years as a researcher, teacher, and clinician. Divorce is often accompanied by overwhelming feelings of guilt. Working collaboratively with my clients, using self-compassion and mindfulness, helps to reduce the suffering guilt causes them and allows them to move forward with greater optimism.

Shohreh 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.

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.
