Divorce support groups and coping with divorce:
Divorce Lifestyle, Health, and Wellness, Self-Care, Mental health
- Divorce stirs up all sorts of emotions and issues – stress and grief that stem from the death of a relationship and the break of an important contract.
- A group of people who meet in person or online to share their divorce-related experiences and give and receive support.
- The group is led by a therapist (myself) who guides group discussion about a pertinent topic or topics.
- Confidentiality is a top priority
- Encourage structured conversations and promote fair – and – take between participants.
- The goal is for each member to leave the meeting feeling validated and satisfied.
Benefits of divorce support groups:
- Allow you to talk through your recovery process in a group setting – or one on one with a therapist
- Share our story instead of holding it in
- Hear the stories of others
- You may make new friends
- It’s fairly easy to find one that fits your schedule
A therapist can help you move through the natural stages of grief that accompany divorce. Provide you with coping tools to help you through your toughest times.
Unlike a support group, private therapy allows you to work through your issue in a self-focus manner.
You don’t have to do this alone. Plenty of support exists for people just like you who want to share their experiences, learn new perspectives, and give and receive compassion.
