Divorce Recovery

 

“A man is not rightly conditioned until he is a happy, healthy, and prosperous being; and happiness, health, and prosperity are the result of a harmonious adjustment of the inner with the outer of the man with his surroundings.” James Allen

 

It is easy for one to become bitter over a relationship which has ended. In fact, that is often what happens. It does not have to be this way, however.  You can choose to grow through your divorce instead of going through your divorce. 

Through this program, participants will learn to process their emotions as they go through the divorce/separation process, plan for their future, deal with ex-spouses, help children cope with the divorce and find and experience forgiveness.  Further, participants will learn to improve their future relationships and self-esteem.  Clients will be guided through the recovery process and given the tools necessary to empower themselves to move forward and not stay stuck. 

During this workshop, we will be using the book Growing Through Divorce by Jim Smoke.
