FAQs
I’m struggling with the emotional side of separating. Where can I find help?
It’s very common to find the emotional journey of separation challenging. Talking to trusted friends or family members can help you process how you’re feeling. Journalling, meditation, and mindfulness practices can also be supportive tools. If you’d like additional help, speaking to your GP is a great first step. You might also consider working with a counsellor, therapist, or a divorce coach who can guide you through the emotional aspects more deeply.
What is a divorce coach, and does amicable offer this service?
A divorce coach works with you individually or together as a couple to support you emotionally during and after separation. While amicable specialises in legal services for separating couples, we work closely with trusted divorce coaches and can refer you to someone who can help.
How do I know if I need therapy during a divorce?
If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unable to move past certain emotions, therapy might be a helpful option. A therapist can support you in working through deeper issues that arise during separation. Divorce coaches and counsellors are also available if you’re looking for different types of emotional support.
How do I tell my ex-partner they might benefit from therapy during our divorce?
Suggesting therapy to an ex-partner can be a sensitive conversation. It’s often helpful to approach the topic gently, focusing on your concern for their wellbeing rather than making it seem like criticism. You could suggest that therapy or support might help both of you navigate the process more smoothly — for your own benefit and any children involved.
