Coparenting Counseling will not heal the pain and hurt YOU FEEL from your divorce. You will need to do your own recovery and therapy for that to happen (and I hope that you do!), but Coparenting Counseling can be helpful in building a new relationship with your coparent. For kids of divorce, they have enough pain to deal with just getting over their family ending. Adding constant fighting to that pain is just not fair. For their sake, I urge you to get help if you need it, so your kids learn that divorce is NOT the final word to their family, as they knew it.  There is hope for a new future and while their parents are no longer married they can get along, so everyone can move forward and have a better future.

Are you standing at the crossroads of your journey, questioning whether weekly therapy sessions are worth the commitment and investment? We understand the uncertainty that lingers wondering if will therapy REALLY work?  As counselors, we believe in the service we provide! Why? Because we have seen people change and improve as they have the time and space to share their life’s journey uncensored with a professional.

I recently attended the Alabama Counselors Association Conference 2016 and put together this list of resources for counselors to help them better serve families of divorce.  Most of these resources are specific to school counselors but not all of them are.  I hope you will find these resources helpful!
