Divorce and Break-ups

Heal, rebuild, and find your footing again after the loss of an important, deep relationship.

Divorce and breakups can be some of the most painful transitions we experience in life. Even when separation feels like the right decision, the process often brings grief, uncertainty, and profound emotional stress. At GML Therapy, we provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space to process the end of a relationship, rebuild your sense of self, and move forward with greater clarity and resilience.

Who is this specialized therapy for?

This focused therapy is for anyone who is:

  • Going through or recovering from a breakup, separation, or divorce

  • Struggling with feelings of grief, loss, or loneliness

  • Adjusting to new family roles, co-parenting, or shared custody

  • Experiencing identity shifts after the end of a partnership

  • Feeling stuck in cycles of rumination, regret, or “what ifs”

  • Wanting to heal from relationship wounds before moving into new ones

How does this show up for clients?

We support clients experiencing post-breakup challenges, such as:

  • Intense sadness, grief, or depression after the end of a relationship

  • Anxiety about the future, dating again, or starting over

  • Guilt, shame, or self-blame related to the separation

  • Anger, resentment, or unresolved conflict with a former partner

  • Difficulty focusing, sleeping, or managing daily responsibilities

  • Struggles with self-esteem, self-trust, or identity rebuilding

  • Emotional overwhelm while navigating legal, financial, or family changes

How Therapy Helps

At GML Therapy, we help you make sense of this transition with both compassion and practical tools. Together, we may work on:

  • Grief-Informed Therapy to process the complex emotions that come with the end of a relationship, including sadness, anger, and shame.

  • Attachment-Based Therapy to explore patterns in past and present relationships and begin cultivating healthier bonds moving forward.

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns such as self-blame, guilt, or catastrophic thinking.

  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to regulate overwhelming emotions, cope with distress, and improve communication during or after separation.

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you clarify values, accept difficult emotions, and create a new life direction after loss.

  • Mindfulness Practices to stay grounded, reduce rumination, and reconnect with the present moment.

Through therapy, we can work to reduce the emotional weight of separation and help you navigate your next steps to moving forward.

Our goal is to help you not only recover, but also to rebuild a stronger, more resilient sense of self.
