Divorce support for men: Professional counseling & coaching for divorced dads |
|
Divorce is one of the most devastating events in a man's life. In all-too-many cases, fathers become mere visitors in their own children's lives. Fathers can come to feel that the emotional support they give their children is undervalued, and that the only role society assigns to them is that of a financial provider.

How do you decide what to fight for, and when to let go? How do you deal with moments of discouragement or despair? I want to share with you "the divorced father’s promise", to give you a sense of hope and focus: "A divorced dad is still a dad. You will always be your child’s father – from close or from afar. "You affirm your right to be a father by exercising it – in the best way you can at the time. You define yourself by what you can give, not by what you can’t." From: Still a Dad You may feel that dealing with your feelings is a luxury you can't afford at this time. You may be afraid that, if you were to be too conscious of your emotions, you would no longer be capable of coping with the pressures of your divorce. But it's just the opposite. Dealing with your emotional issues through divorce coaching will help you deal more efficiently with all the other issues. In other words, dealing with your emotional divorce is not just a way to rebuild your life... it is also an investment in reducing the aggravation of your divorce process. Professional counseling helps you deal with the hardships of divorce: - How to remain the best father that you can be throughout the struggles of divorce, and after divorce - How to find ways to disengage from the vicious cycle of ever-escalating arguments - Up to what point does it make sense for you to fight for the degree of involvement you want in your children's lives, in the face of overwhelming pressure - How to overcome the impact of the divorce turmoil on your career and personal life - New relationships Please note: - I am not a lawyer, and will not give you advice on legal issues. - Counseling is a paid, professional service. See fees in the FAQ section. - Sessions are either in person (in New York City) or by phone. For more information (including fees), see link below for Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ). |
