In therapy, you will receive an objective perspective that will help you navigate the uncertainty, emotional damage, and figure out “How did we get here.”
Divorce therapy can be essential to helping parents that want to be amicable and discuss how to move forward with the divorce without it getting nasty or out of hand. Therapy can help the divorced couple make important decisions by lowering the hostility between the couple and using therapy to really talk through how to move forward with the divorce with minimal hurt and pain.
Counseling for divorced couples can help with how to manage the divorce process when children are involved. As a parent, you may feel extreme shame and guilt and feel that you are hurting your child.

Divorce support groups help tackle big problems in an intimate way with others cheering you on and supporting you through this transition. In this space, men will be able to be vulnerable, expressive, honest, and BLAST the stereotype that suggest they can’t be in touch with their feelings
Help Through the Divorce
Contrary to popular belief, men do experience sadness, anxiety, depression, and a million other feelings when going through a divorce. They battle with how to cope, how to move on, how to be a staple of stability in the life of their kids, and how to learn from their marriage.
Women do get more support because, usually, they seek it out more often or they have more resources available to them in their community. It can be scary to venture out and seek support from a therapist or in a group setting because you may feel shame or judgment. In a divorce support group, everyone is going through very similar experiences and have similar feelings. This minimizes the judgment and creates a space that is safe for you to share, grow, and heal.
Divorce recovery groups are there for you to release everything you have emotionally stuffed inside. The group provides a supportive pillar for men to figure out, within the privacy of the group, what went wrong in their marriages, how they dealing with the emotions that arise daily, and how they will choose to move forward.
Men’s Relationships
The support of other men in a therapeutic setting helps in giving you permission to be yourself completely.
Groups create a really unique environment that allows men to learn about themselves and how to advocate for their needs while building potentially lifelong relationships and a camaraderie with each other.
The group also provide a place for men to keep each other honest and commit to the process. Men have an opportunity to relate to each and call “Bull Shit” (respectfully) if their fellow group member is not fully committing to the process or trying to shame and blame.
