Support During Divorce
When everything is shifting, you need a stabilizing ear and, at times, a strategic guide.
Divorce is never just about legal documents. It’s a layered, often disorienting process that reshapes identity, relationships, routines, even the way you think and feel.
Whether you’re the one initiating it, blindsided by it, or stuck somewhere in between, divorce support therapy offers a place to slow down and find your footing.
As both a licensed psychologist and attorney, I bring a rare, integrated lens to this part of the journey. With decades of experience—including years in family court settings—I understand how divorce impacts your emotional world, your parenting, and how you show up in high-stakes decisions. This is therapy that holds space for both your feelings and your strategy.
Who It’s For
This work is for individuals who are:
- In the midst of separation or divorce and need support, containment, or perspective from an experienced divorce therapist
- Navigating legal decisions, custody conflict, or communication breakdowns
- Struggling to manage intense emotions—anger, grief, panic, guilt, or ambivalence
- Looking for guidance on how to show up well for themselves, their children, and their future
Whether your divorce is high-conflict or quietly painful, this is a space to sort out what’s happening and how to approach it with thoughtfulness, steadiness, and integrity.
How It Works
There’s no one-size-fits-all here. We tailor our work based on what you need and where you are in the process. That might include:
- Grounding support to help you manage stress and emotional reactivity
- Coaching on how to communicate clearly with ex-partners, legal teams, or your children
- Strategic insight—based on courtroom experience—into how your choices might be perceived
- Reflective work to understand your patterns, values, and what kind of life you want post-divorce
This can be short-term support during acute stress, or longer-term therapy as you rebuild.
What You Might Gain
- Greater emotional clarity in a time that feels murky
- Tools for staying calm and confident in challenging conversatio
- Perspective on your behavior and how to shift patterns that no longer serve you
- A steadier self-narrative to carry into parenting, court, or daily life
- The sense that you're not just reacting—you’re responding with care and clarity
“In high-conflict divorce, it’s not just about what’s true—it’s about what’s heard, what’s remembered, and what gets misunderstood. I help clients communicate with clarity and intention.”
— Dr. Adam Rosen
You Don’t Have to Handle All of This Alone
Divorce brings more than just paperwork. It brings questions, conflict, doubt, and sometimes, an emotional unraveling. You deserve space to be honest about what this really feels like and support from someone who understands the full picture.
