I'm Brigitte, a mediator and counselor with extensive experience in corporate training and psychosocial support. As a mother of four, I navigate the complexities of blended family life with empathy and resilience. Having gone through a divorce with children and combining families to create new family systems, I understand the challenges of joint parenting, setting boundaries, and letting go. My goal is to assist you in navigating these challenges as well. I know how challenging life transitions, stress, and anxiety can be and the importance of having the right person along this journey with you.

Fairytales make you believe that love is easy. Typically there is a hero, a damsel, one fight, and then they live happily ever after. Unfortunately, marriage takes a lot more know-how and support than that. But I do believe in happily ever after! So I specialize in helping parents in marital crises turn their marriage around because I know you want your children not just to see you survive together, but what deep, beautiful love can look like.

Divorce Counsellors

How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?

Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.

What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?

There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioural, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioural therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.

When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?

When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.

How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?

It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
