At the end of a marriage, it often represents the closing of a chapter, the failure of a dream for happily ever after and working through painful emotions.

But sadly, we all know that divorce is the ending for many marriages in America today.

You and your spouse may have done everything possible to save the marriage. It’s time now to pick up the pieces of your life and create a new chapter. Thriveworks coaches can help you navigate through these difficult and confusing times. Reach out to us today to schedule divorce counseling at Thriveworks Charlotte.

What Divorce Counseling Services Are There?

Thriveworks has many options available in helping you and your family through all stages of divorce:

  • Parent Counseling – A counselor can assist parents at the beginning of the divorce process and help serve as a “Thinking Partner” in how to reach agreements in creating a parenting plan that is in the best interest of the children in addition to learning how to effectively co parent moving forward.
  • Co-Parenting Counseling – A counselor meets with both parents together to go over how to co parent, reduce conflict, learn how to reach agreements, and how to handle conflict with each other. Parents will learn skills that will help them work with one another focusing on the child/children.
  • Life-after Divorce – The Divorce Counselor works with clients on learning and adapting to their new way of life. Focus will be on how to adjust and move forward in a positive direction despite all the changes that are going on.
  • Mid-life Divorce – Coaching includes working with individuals who are in their mid-life and are going through or have gone through a divorce. Counseling includes how to work with the emotional impact that comes from the divorce and to learn the skils of how to move forward and adjust to living life more independently.
  • Single Parenting – Coaching will assist the client on how to adjust to being a single parent. The Coach will work with the client to develop a plan to help make the transition to a single parent successful and reduce the feeling of being overwhelmed during a difficult time.

How Does Divorce Counseling Work?

Thriveworks has trained professionals that can offer a variety of services specifically to help families going through a high conflict divorce.

Reunification – Reunification services consists of a type of family therapy that works with a family when there has been a disruption of a parent/child relationship. Reunification is typically ordered by a judge or an agreement is in place between both parties.

Visitation Refusal – Sometimes children may develop visitation refusal. This is when a child will resist seeing or visiting with their other parent. This can be due to a variety of reasons. Thriveworks has therapists and coaches that work with children and parents to help reduce visitation refusal and strategies for parents when faced with this challenge.

Parent Coordination – Parent Coordination is a service that is ordered through the courts or an agreement is signed. Based on the Parent Coordinator order, the Parent Coordinator will assist the family in working together and making decisions in the best interest of the children. Through Parent Coordination, the Parent Coordinator is a representative of the court that assists parents in learning how to work together in the best interest of their children. The goal is to move away from litigation and stay out of the court room. When a decision can not be reached the Parent Coordinator will make the final decision if one can not be reached.

I have been seeing Terryn Maher for a couple of months now and she is awesome!! Very knowledgeable, attentive, thorough, thoughtful, caring, etc. I could go on for awhile. I’ve been in counseling with another therapist for about 14 years but I already feel like I’m getting so much more from working with Terryn. Thriveworks on a whole has been great to work with as well. They are easy to work with and schedule appointments with. I was nervous about working with a company over directly with just the therapist but it has actually worked out well. I highly recommend them!

I've worked with Mrs. Matson for close to a year now and I can say with certainty that she's a great counselor to go to for help with emotional regulation and understanding, grief management, and processing trauma in healthy and beneficial ways. Her use of meditation techniques to get to the root of my emotions and habits have helped me understand so much about myself and why I operate the way I do. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone just starting out looking for a good counselor, or anyone looking for a friendly empathetic professional who listens well and draws from a wealth of information to provide really quality services.

I have seen Dr. Daniel Stillwell for a year for individual and couples counseling and I trust him immensely. He is a skilled, authentic, and highly competent professional. I’ve also referred him to others and they described the same. Thriveworks staff have been very helpful with insurance and appointments.

Adriana Blanco is wonderful. I never felt any judgement from her during our sessions. She is compassionate, firm and extremely knowledgeable. I could not see myself opening up as much with another counselor, thank you for putting her in my path.
