The process of divorce is different for each and every person who experiences it. Most people try everything to repair or save their marriage. Divorce was previously unimaginable, yet it has unfortunately become a possibility.
Whether you initiated the divorce or your spouse did, getting through it takes time and support. Friends and family can be helpful when you need to vent, and can be there to lean on and bring a smile to your face when you really need one. However, friends and family can only do so much, for so long.
Individual counseling with an experienced Psychologist can assist you in putting your life back in order, help you feel supported during the process, and provide perspective for learning from your divorce experience.
Center for Shared Insight also offers a Divorce Recovery Group for women that meets weekly. For more information, click here.

We understand that you may have been in therapy before and may have had a less-than-favorable experience. Our team of therapists are committed to providing confidential, ethical, professional, and evidenced-based treatment based on the philosophy of attachment theory. Our approach also focuses on the source of the problem and solution – you. By helping you improve your relationship to yourself, and understanding the underlying reasons for challenges, you develop skills to improve your relationship with others.
Many people believe that therapy is not for them because they’ve been told that entering therapy means they are “weak” or “going crazy.” Nothing could be further from the truth. Having the courage to ask for help during a time of need is a source of strength and a sign of health. Therapy helps people with all kinds of concerns, from mild, everyday concerns to more serious emotional and behavioral issues. Contact our team of Denver psychologists, and learn how therapy can benefit you.

Always interested in the dating issues of friends, wanting to ease and "fix" family conflict, and then later, personally struggling to break free of unhealthy dating patterns, I've been studying relationships all my life - inside and outside of the classroom.
