Dr. Glenn Francis
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., MFT
When relationships break up a great deal of distress ensues. Having lived through this distress myself, and having accompanied many people as they go through it, I support people to discover an expanded sense of themselves beyond the breakup: it can feel like the end of the world at the time. But, it is an opening to a new and different life, and being closely accompanied as you discover this is a blessing.

In addition to my work as a therapist, I am also a trained mediator and specialize in working with divorcing couples. I help parents create sustainable parenting agreements and help families navigate the many complexities that come along with a divorce. At the center of my work is an appreciation for the challenges that come along with divorce for parents and their children as well. My approach is always practical, empathetic and oriented towards solving problems.

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.

Corrie Blissit
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT#150479
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.

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.

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.

Divorce
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.
