Divorce is one of the most stressful events in any person's life. Going through a divorce creates an enormous pressure and provokes serious emotional reactions such as anxiety, depression, guilt and anger which lead to severe personal, social and vocational impairments. The significant life changing experience caused by the divorce requires a careful assessment into its causes and its emotional consequences. On the other hand, the emotional trauma and the pain caused by the divorce can be diverted into an opportunity for positive changes. Your divorce therapist will guide you - step by step - to navigate through the emotional hardships of your divorce and to heal your emotional wounds. It will lead you to an emotional growth and back to normal functioning. Your divorce therapist is highly interactive and contains numerous questionnaires and exercises which you need to complete in order to increase your awareness into your emotional symptoms and to improve your ability to assimilate effective new coping strategies, mostly based on CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) principles, essential for the healing process to get your life back.
