Divorce Grief Counseling
Rediscover Yourself After The Storm
Are you feeling caught in a complicated mix of emotions right now? The person you were when you were married feels like a distant memory. The roles, routines, shared identity that came within your marriage — they’re gone. You’re feeling frustrated because despite this understanding, you still catch yourself missing those moments, longing for the familiar, even if they’re tangled up with hurt and disappointment.
You’re not only grieving the relationship
but a version of yourself that you’re not sure how to reclaim.
You may be feeling a deep sense of loss and isolation, while at the same time feeling resentment towards your ex. You’re frustrated because while this person caused you pain, you still have moments of missing them. The emptiness feels heavy, and yet, there’s also a flicker of relief mixed with guilt. Even if the relationship was strained, there’s a grief over no longer having someone to share daily life with. You feel confused by this loneliness while also carrying heavy angry and hurt. Anger and resentment are natural emotions during and after a divorce. You may be feeling a sense of betrayal, broken promises and even unfulfilled expectations. The anger can be directed at the former partner, at oneself, or at the situation in general. It’s often an exhausting cycle that’s hard to break, leaving a lingering bitterness and a heavy emotional burden. The resentment can come in waves—over things said and unsaid, over broken promises, and over the hurt that you’re carrying.
Sometimes it feels like it’s too much to hold,
and yet, letting go feels equally impossible.
On top of the anger and resentment, you find yourself stuck in wondering about the future. Questioning what life will look like a year from now and if you’ll be okay. You find these questions keep you up at night. It’s natural to feel anxious when the path ahead isn’t clear. It’s easy to get lost in worst-case scenarios, replaying the “what ifs” and fearing what comes next.
Anxiety Builds with every unknown, leaving you feeling stuck between
the past and a future that seems out of reach.

Life After Divorce is Possible
What if I told you there is hope for all these battles you’re currently facing? Would you believe me if I told you reconnecting with the parts of you that were left behind, exploring interests and passions you’ve always wanted to pursue, and redefining what matters most to you without compromise is possible? I’m here to tell you, it is!
You get to be the author of your own story now, shaping a new identity that reflects the person you are today.
It’s not about forgetting who you were in the relationship; it’s about embracing who you can become beyond it.
Your identity doesn’t have to be tied to what you’ve lost—it can be rooted in the strength and courage you’re finding now, in the freedom to explore what lights you up, and in the excitement of discovering who you are when you’re just…you.
Imagine feeling free from the anger and resentment you’ve carried for so long. What if that anger didn’t have to consume you but rather it could be the spark that ignites something new within you? This is your chance to channel that emotion into creating a life that aligns with your truth. Anger can bring clarity: it helps you see what you won’t tolerate anymore, what boundaries you need to set, and what truly matters to you. You can use that fire to fuel your healing, to rebuild yourself with a sense of purpose, and to let go of what’s holding you back.
You deserve a life that’s not defined by resentment, but by resilience.
This is about turning the pain into power, taking back your story, and using it to create a stronger, more self-assured version of yourself.
Imagine creating a life that’s fully yours; one that reflects who you are now and what you truly want? Instead of following a path you didn’t choose, you have the power to decide what matters to you, to set goals that excite you, and to build a future that feels meaningful. There’s freedom in knowing you’re not bound by the past—you get to decide what comes next. It’s not about having all the answers right now; it’s about taking small steps forward, trusting that you’re capable of handling whatever comes your way.
The unknown isn’t something to fear.
it’s a space to grow, to try new things, and to create a life that feels like it was made just for you.
If you are ready to explore the unknown and sit in a space to grow; allowing you to create a life that feels authentically yours, click below to schedule your FREE 15 minute phone consultation.

Common Questions about Divorce Grief Counseling
How do I grieve while also handling all the logistics?”
This is a very common question (regardless of the type of loss you're grieving) and a great one at that! Logistics are part of the process and is the main element that provides a distraction to the grief. Many clients will say, "I was doing fine and then all of a sudden I wasn't." That sudden change often refers to when the logistics have been addressed and are no longer present; leaving room for the grief to surface. You are in a spot now where you're attempting to navigate both the logistics of the divorce and the grief of the divorce. So what do we do with that? We leave room and allow for both. You shouldn't have to walk through either of these events alone and with my help you don't have to. You get to decide what your process looks like while I provide the safe space and tools to honor that process.
I'm angry! Is it possible to also grieve?”
Yes of course! Grief and loss triggers many different emotions including anger, bitterness, resentment, etc. A common misconception with grief is "I should only feel sad and miss everything about her/him/them." While yes that's the most common response to grief and loss, it's not the only one. And that's okay!
Having some of the negative emotions listed above is also natural and typically comes from unresolved issues before the loss occurred. In situations of grieving a loss through divorce, the negative emotions may be more relevant for you than those who are grieving a loss due to death (also known as a common loss). Part of engaging in divorce grief counseling involves addressing and processing through ALL the emotions that come up, even the not so desirable ones. Grief is complex. Don't walk it alone!
