How do I manage my life after divorce? How do I deal with the kids living in two households? How can I manage drama with my ex? How can I feel healed enough to hope for a second (or third or fourth) chance at love? If you have been divorced or are currently dealing with a troublesome marriage that will likely end in divorce, you may be asking yourself these and many more questions! Surprisingly, considering high the divorce rates are in the US, the vast majority were never prepared even to have a relationship in the first place- let alone manage a break up or divorce! And divorce is often times not just the end of a relationship- it often includes lots of painful court proceedings, fights over property or custody issues, and the death of our future dreams and hopes that we created when we first got married.
Therapy can be an amazing resource when you are dealing with issues related to divorce. Whether it is trying to figure out how to manage your own emotions, how to communicate with your ex without feeling like you will go crazy, how to help your children have the best possible experience in the divorce, or just having someone to help you figure out what your next steps might be, counseling can be a great way to work on the issues from your divorce and help you and your family heal so that you can move forward in life. After that, comes the best part—creating a life you LOVE and a community of people who support you. I have 20 years of experience as a mental health counselor and have worked in Mexico, Japan, Germany, and in the US. I have worked with a very diverse group of individuals coming from many different backgrounds. I am a bilingual, bicultural (Spanish/English) therapist and I have extensive training in helping people succeed after divorce.
It can be intimidating to make that first call but with telehealth we can actually start our counseling sessions anywhere you feel comfortable and safe- from the privacy of your own bedroom or your car, to your office or your home. Things can and WILL get better. If you are ready to take that brave next step, I am willing to meet you there and help you move forward!
