When you are contemplating separation and divorce you need the guidance of a professional. Custody, visitation, fault, division of property, alimony and child support are all things that need to be considered. As much as you need an attorney for the legal issues, you also need to consult a professional for the emotional issues. Having someone that can guide you through an intensely emotional time and all of the changes that happen during that time is a necessity.

At times when there are children, there are goals that you and your spouse should
agree on:

• Agree on matters related to the kids
• Be honest
• Don’t be critical of your spouse
• Be respectful
• Keep a routine

Children often go through a stressful, sad and confusing time when their parents separate or divorce. In order to minimize the difficulty for them, talk therapy is very helpful in expressing your feelings and emotions to someone who can provide solutions and coping skills in these situations. Talk herapy can be beneficial for all.
