Natalie A Shafer
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, LPC
Divorce can be a disorienting experience, often bringing a mix of grief, relief, uncertainty, and change. It can reshape your sense of identity, relationships, and the future you once imagined. We will make space to process what you’re going through, work through the complexities of the transition, and begin to rebuild in a way that feels true to you.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Divorce and separation can be (and usually is) a very difficult experience that can take its toll on the family being affected. There are ways, however, to minimize the emotional damage and work toward resolution so that the healing process can begin.

Divorce
Juliette Grantham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I'm Juliette Grantham, a psychoanalytic psychotherapist specializing in divorce.
Divorce and separation rarely produce one clean feeling. Grief, anger, relief, guilt, and disorientation can arrive in the same afternoon, and the version of the future you had assumed is gone whether or not you wanted the marriage to end. You may be sorting out who you are without a role you occupied for years, managing co-parenting with someone you are still angry at, or second-guessing a decision that is already made.
I work psychoanalytically, which means we look beyond logistics to what the marriage meant and what its ending has disturbed. The feelings that surface carry an unconscious logic worth understanding, and they often reach back well before this relationship. In sessions there is room for all of it, including the parts that do not sound acceptable to say out loud.
If you are moving through a divorce or its aftermath, I would be glad to talk.

Divorce
Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In supporting individuals processing divorce, I provide a compassionate and understanding environment for them to navigate the emotional and practical aspects of the process. Through therapy, we work together to explore and validate their feelings of grief, anger, sadness, or relief. I offer coping strategies and tools to manage the emotional rollercoaster of divorce, including mindfulness techniques, journaling, and self-care practices. Additionally, we address practical concerns such as legal proceedings, financial adjustments, and co-parenting arrangements, helping them feel empowered and prepared for the next steps. I also provide a supportive space for individuals to reflect on their experiences, gain clarity, and envision a positive future beyond divorce. My goal is to help them heal from the pain of separation, rebuild their lives with resilience and optimism, and navigate the transition to a new chapter with confidence and strength.

Divorce
Wayne G. Siegel, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, Clinical Psychology
Divorce is more than a legal process—it’s a profound emotional transition that can disrupt identity, routines, and relationships. Whether you're in the midst of separation or managing the aftershocks months or years later, I offer structured, evidence-based support to help you regain clarity, confidence, and direction.
My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Schema Therapy to address the emotional, cognitive, and behavioral dimensions of divorce. We’ll explore grief, identity shifts, co-parenting stressors, and the impact on self-worth—while developing practical tools to rebuild your life with intention. For clients facing high-conflict dynamics or perfectionistic tendencies, I also offer values-based decision support and emotionally intelligent communication strategies.
Therapy is collaborative, nonjudgmental, and tailored to your strengths. Whether you're a healthcare professional, entrepreneur, or someone quietly navigating this transition behind a high-functioning exterior, we’ll build a roadmap that honors your history and equips you for what’s next.
