The ending of a marriage can be an emotionally taxing journey, no matter how confident you are in your decision. Divorce often brings a wide range of intense emotions, including grief, confusion, anxiety, and guilt — particularly if children are involved. Divorce recovery counseling helps individuals heal throughout their journey by processing their emotions and developing invaluable new coping skills.

What Is Divorce Recovery?

Divorce recovery refers to the process of emotional, mental and practical healing that takes place throughout every stage of a divorce. Divorce recovery, like any form of healing, is unique to each person. However, recovery often happens in four stages:

  • Stabilization: Turning to a support system and establishing coping skills can offer helpful stabilization during the initial healing phase.
  • Exploration: During this stage, many people examine what went awry in their marriage and what they want from their future.
  • Experimentation: This stage of divorce recovery may involve starting to seek a new relationship, or pursuing life as an independent individual.
  • Regaining confidence: At this stage of recovery, you’re confident in your ability to accomplish your goals and pursue happiness on your own terms.

Who Should Seek After-Divorce Therapy?

Divorce recovery counseling can be beneficial to anyone involved in the breakdown of a marriage, including both adults and children. Therapy is an invaluable tool for any divorced couple, whether they attend sessions individually and separately. While many divorced couples who pursue counseling decide to attend on their own, partnered therapy sessions can be a helpful medium to mediate conflict, determine healthy boundaries and set guidelines for the future.

Children can also benefit from after-divorce therapy. Divorce is often emotionally difficult for children, creating feelings like fear, guilt, confusion or abandonment. Many children battle anxiety that they contributed to their parent’s separation, or feel caught in the crossfire of custody arrangements. Divorce therapy can provide an invaluable outside perspective and a space for children to unpack any intense feelings.
