Divorce, Post-Separation Abuse, and Parenting With a Narcissist
Divorce isn’t always just paperwork and moving on, especially when you’re leaving a toxic or narcissistic partner. It’s a battlefield that can include post-separation abuse, high-conflict divorce tactics, parental alienation, and navigating a family court system that often doesn’t understand covert emotional abuse.
If you’re Googling terms like:
“Parallel parenting with a narcissist”
“High-conflict divorce support for moms”
“Post-separation abuse signs”
“Gaslighting in family court”
“Co-parenting with a toxic ex”
“Surviving custody battles with a narcissist”
…you’re exactly who I work with.
I know firsthand how devastating and isolating this can feel. I’ve walked this path myself as a single mom. I understand the terror of sending your kids for visitation, the frustration of being disbelieved by the court, and the exhaustion of trying to protect your children while managing work, finances, and your own healing.
How I Help Women Through Toxic Divorces:
Education on post-separation abuse tactics so you’re not blindsided
Strategies for parallel parenting to minimize conflict and protect your kids
Emotional regulation tools for high-conflict custody negotiations
Boundary-setting skills to reduce manipulation and chaos
Trauma-informed therapy to heal gaslighting wounds and rebuild self-trust
Mind-body practices to manage burnout, anxiety, and chronic stress flare-ups
Coaching support to stay grounded, organized, and empowered in family court
With 25+ years as a licensed psychologist and certified coach, plus lived experience surviving a high-conflict divorce, I bring both clinical expertise and real-world understanding. My clients often tell me it’s the first time they’ve felt seen and validated.
You’re not imagining the manipulation or the obstacles, you’re navigating one of the hardest experiences a woman can face. You don’t have to face it alone. Together, we’ll create a plan to protect your peace, support your kids, and reclaim your future.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Divorce can be both a gift and a curse; in any case, it is rarely easy, particularly when children are involved. As my own therapist once advised many years ago when I worked through my own divorce, you cannot expect to dismantle a family without having to walk through the rubble. I help couples and individuals work on their relationship yet also recognize when letting go and parting may be a healthier solution. Helping individuals divorce mindfully and with compassion is the goal from my perspective.

Carrie Askin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Even a 'good' divorce can shake the ground under your feet. Dismantling a shared life is difficult and you may be having a lot of contradictory feelings: grief mixed with relief, compassion and anger. It can take some time to start to grieve and to figure out how you want to rebuild your life. In our work together we'll make space for all of the feelings and we'll work through what lessons you want to learn and figure out what you want moving forward.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
There are points in a relationship when going your separate ways becomes the best option. But how do you know the best way to get through such a mess? Everyone has seen a couple suffer through an acrimonious divorce, and it’s clear no one wins. People often don’t think about couples or individual therapy because they are leaving the relationship, but that turns out to be a major oversight. Trying to understand one another in the process of divorce can alleviate deep hurts and circumvent major pitfalls in the process of ending the relationship.
Divorcing can often mean dividing assets and agreeing to custody solutions. This process can be excruciating for both parties. Even if you might feel a deep rage toward your partner, allowing each person to openly discuss their desires in a safe environment can be both refreshing and illuminating, cutting through the unimportant dribble to what really matters: moving on with your life in a way that allows each person to thrive. You can trust us to be sensitive to the deep pain of this situation and to carefully hold each person’s subjectivity in order to see you through to the other side.
If it feels as though you can’t be in the same room with your ex partner, we offer individual therapy for either or both people to work through the pain and even logistics of such an enormous life change.
