Seperation
Counselling
Sometimes, people seek counselling when one or both partners have decided to end the marriage or couple relationship, and wish to do so in a collaborative manner that minimises conflict. Some wish to build a new relationship as friends, offering mutual support to one another; others want to learn how to effectively co-parent after separation; and some wish to effect their separation with minimal rancour and expense.
Sometimes, though starting with Separation Counselling, you may wish to explore Individual Counselling or Couples Counselling.
How Does it Work?
This is an emotionally and practically challenging time for people. Both partners, as well as any children, can benefit immensely from a collaborative approach to separation. Counselling can support you to envision what you’d like your relationship and family to look like during and after separation and divorce, and to consider how you can support children through the change. It can help you navigate the different aspects of separation (emotional, physical, financial, social). You can develop skills of communication and negotiation that ease the transition and provide a foundation for cooperation and decision-making far into the future.

‘Let me say once more how much our counsellor-client relationship has meant to me. Working with you literally changed my life, wholly for the better, and I will always treasure that experience. Although that time of my life was undeniably painful and difficult, I now look at it as a time of tremendous growth and a necessary step on the way to a life I'm so much happier with. I can't thank you enough for being by my side throughout that journey.’
