Divorce and Separation Consultation
Sadly, not all couples stay together. Separating can be an extremely painful process, impacting the whole family system.
This is particularly true for any children who may be involved. In response to these challenges, we offer a holding and containing environment where partners feel able to speak their minds while feeling psychologically safe. We believe there are different styles of coupledom and relationships. For example, some partners will desire to continue their relationship on a parental level.
There may be the desire to raise their children in a more even handed and loving manner. Support will be offered in such situations.
Clearly, there will be change, loss and grief to be processed. If there is conflict present, we will consider more developmental ways of resolving the conflict by modelling a healthier communication and negotiation style. In short, a therapeutic frame is offered where difficult conversations can be had.
