Maureen Karol, LMHC
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Mental Health Counselor
When addressing divorce, it is important to remember all parties involved from the adults divorcing to the children (if there are any) as well as even extended family depending on the overall family dynamic. The goal of any divorce is to have two people who once cared for one another be able to part ways with little to no harm to each other. It really is that simple.

Theresa McCay Boutross
Marriage and Family Therapist, LCSW, CADC. CMFT
Divorce is not just the dissolution of a marriage; it is a profound restructuring of the family system, particularly when navigating toxic relational patterns and the impacts of narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) abuse. Parents who are concerned about their children's well-being during this challenging process often seek guidance to ensure a healthier transition for their entire family.
As a therapist specializing in these dynamics, I help families understand and traverse the stages of grief that accompany divorce, acknowledging both the emotional turmoil and the opportunity for growth. Research shows that children thrive when parents prioritize their needs and cultivate a cooperative perspective on co-parenting.
Through Family Restructuring Therapy, I support all members of the family system in establishing new, functional ways of relating to one another. Together, we will work towards effective communication, healing from past trauma, and creating a nurturing environment where children can flourish. By focusing on the best interests of your children and fostering resilience, we can transform this transition into a path toward healthier relationships and a brighter future.
