Separation or divorce can be one of life's most stressful events, bringing feelings of uncertainty, sadness,high stress and disruption. It may feel like you are navigating a whole new world of emotional and practical challenges. There is often a combination of grief and relief after leaving a challenging relationship. Adjustment to a new reality is a key psychological process even if you have been aware of the relationship breaking down over a period of time.
If you or your children are struggling with the emotional aftermath of a separation or divorce, finding it hard to cope with daily life, or experiencing conflict in managing co-parenting responsibilities, it might be time to seek help. In our experience, our interventions are best utilised when the financial and legal matters have been settled. We are not able to achieve as much positive outcome when the legal matters are in play.
At Hawksburn Therapy Centre, we provide compassionate support to help you and your family adjust to the changes brought about by separation or divorce. Our therapists offer strategies to manage emotional pain, and to find ways to rebuild and redirect your life path. We offer therapies for separating couples who agree to attend a therapeutic space. We also specialise in family therapy to help navigate parental and sibling conflict.
