HOME>> Divorce Counseling: Getting Through the Pain of Divorce with Help
By Krystal Kuehn, MA, LPC, LLP, NCC

No one gets married thinking they will get divorced some day.  Most people have goals and dreams of being together forever, raising a family, and sharing life for better or for worse.  They plan on being a team, growing together, and supporting one another.  But somewhere along the line, they hit bumps in the road.  They come up against walls, floods, and storms.  Their marriage is put to the test.  They are challenged to work together on successfully making it through problems and restoring their relationship. But this doesn’t always happen.  Sometimes one partner abandons the relationship and will not return.  Or, there is abuse that destroys all love and respect.  Whatever the reason, divorce happens. 

Divorce is not an easy option.  Rather, it is a very difficult and painful one.  Sometimes it seems to be the best option or the healthiest one.  Divorce changes lives forever.  Its pain is deep and its loss is great.  To get through it is a grieving process.  There are emotions of anger, guilt, worry, and denial that are normal and part of the healing process.  Accepting these feelings and talking to someone who cares and understands can help in making a healthy adjustment.  It takes time to adjust to the many changes that you will face.  You may have to adjust to changes in your housing, family finances, holidays and celebrations, and family traditions to name just a few.

Although divorce marks the end of a marriage, it is the beginning of a new life for you.  The consequences and challenges can be faced with courage, hope, and peace.  Divorce counseling can help you through the healing process.  Divorce counseling can provide the support and guidance you need to make a healthy adjustment during this difficult time.  You can enter this new phase of life with confidence.  It does not have to destroy you. You can be free of guilt, fear, and shame. You can dream new dreams. You can embrace life and truly live and love again.  You can be whole and happy.  You can learn and become better. You can rise up in strength and see your best days ahead of you.
