Farrah Bonde
Registered Social Worker, LISW
Mental health therapy can help cope with one of life's most challenging transitions. Divorce can bring about a wide range of emotions, including sadness, anger, confusion, loneliness, and anxiety. Therapy offers a safe, non-judgmental space where individuals can explore these feelings, process their grief, and understand their emotional responses better. Therapy may involve reframing negative thoughts, mindfulness, and emotional regulation strategies to manage stress.

Emily Hurlin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW, LCSW
Not every couple I see is trying to stay together. Some are unsure, one partner may be leaning out while the other wants to fight for the marriage, and some have already decided to separate. I help couples get clear about what they want, and when divorce is the path, I help them move through it with less damage, especially when children are involved. For individuals, I offer support through the grief, identity shifts, and practical upheaval that come with ending a marriage.

Tara Leigh Thomsen
Licensed Professional Counselor, LIMHP, CPC
Divorce is considered to be an immense stressor on everyone involved. In addition it causes a type of grief while you mourn for what you thought your future would look like. Divorce also brings out traits that we never expected to see in ourselves or our ex-spouse. Discussing these major life changes in therapy can give you back your power over yourself and your future!

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for individuals navigating divorce, separation, relationship loss, and the emotional challenges that follow major life transitions. Divorce can bring grief, anxiety, depression, anger, loneliness, uncertainty about the future, and difficulty trusting again. Many people also struggle with identity changes, co-parenting stress, communication breakdowns, and unresolved emotional pain connected to the relationship.
Brad takes a holistic and personalized approach to divorce recovery counseling, helping clients process both the emotional impact of the relationship and any underlying trauma that may be contributing to difficulty moving forward. Therapy provides a supportive space to explore your personal history, understand emotional triggers, and work through grief, betrayal, and loss in a healthy and constructive way.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-focused counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to help clients heal from relational trauma, rebuild self-trust, and restore emotional stability. Therapy focuses on helping clients process painful experiences, reduce emotional distress, and develop healthier patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating.
Divorce often impacts trust, self-esteem, and the ability to feel emotionally safe in future relationships. Brad works collaboratively with clients to rebuild a strong sense of identity, improve emotional resilience, and develop healthier boundaries and communication skills. The goal is not only to heal from the past relationship, but to create a more grounded, empowered, and emotionally balanced future.
While talk therapy can provide support and insight, deeper healing often requires addressing the emotional wounds and patterns that may have been present long before or developed during the relationship. Brad’s approach focuses on lasting change rather than temporary relief.
Healing is possible after divorce. With the right support, clients can move forward with clarity, confidence, and emotional freedom—no longer defined by past relationships, but empowered to build a healthier and more fulfilling life.
