I have heard these words during couples therapy far too many times.

Saying those words and facing the reality that is divorce are two very different things.

It is one thing to daydream about a different life, emotionally connect to someone outside your marriage, and envision how green the grass is.

The reality of divorce is that one must disassemble an entire marriage of stuff.

There are houses, cars, children, pets, insurance, bank accounts, memories, pictures, and family heirlooms all need to be divided, labeled, and added up for monetary disbursement.

The ego encourages you to feel rage, hold tight to your beliefs about the relationship, and paint ugly pictures of the other person.

At an inevitable stage, grief creeps in and takes over.

There is a loss, loads of loss.

Learning how to parent, cook, grocery shop, pay bills, keep house all is reimagined.

Life feels, smells, and tastes different.

Where there were visions of possibility, there is now just woundedness and grey.

Somatic psychotherapy allows you to feel through this entire process safely and without overwhelm.

If you are experiencing a divorce, thinking of asking for one, or are on the path to rebuild, call me.

The somatic process will help the healing move a little faster

See who you find on the other side.
