If you hear your spouse say, “I want a divorce,” or you come to the realization that you’re the one who needs to say it, the impact is immediate and overwhelming.

Few words carry the emotional weight and fear that divorce does. And while it might be a single word, it ushers in a storm of emotions, decisions, and changes that can turn your entire world upside down.

Divorce is often compared to a death—not just of a relationship, but of the future you had envisioned, the routines you counted on, and sometimes, the identity you held. According to the American Institute of Stress, divorce ranks as the second most stressful life event, only after the death of a spouse.

But that’s only half the story.

Emotions Run High—But Your Decisions Matter

Divorce is not just emotionally devastating—it’s also logistically and financially complex. You’ll be expected to make clear-headed decisions that will shape your future, from custody agreements and asset division to housing, finances, and everything in between.

But how can you make sound decisions when you’re emotionally overwhelmed? You can’t afford to act impulsively, yet the emotional burden is real. This is where many people make costly mistakes—both financially and emotionally.

Where Do You Turn First?

Most people instinctively turn to close friends, and while you need friends for support, their advice often reflects their own unresolved emotions or personal experiences. It’s not uncommon for their well-meaning advice to escalate tensions or add confusion.

Then there’s the attorney. And yes—if there are shared assets, children, or legal complexities, you absolutely need a qualified divorce attorney to protect your legal interests. But a lawyer is trained to handle the legal side of divorce, not the emotional, logistical, or personal fallout. In fact, many attorneys will admit they spend a good portion of billable hours listening to emotional unloading—time you’re paying hundreds of dollars per hour for, without meaningful resolution.

This Is Where Divorce Coaching Comes In

Hiring a certified divorce coach helps you manage the emotional rollercoaster before you step into a legal office. As a divorce coach based in Point Pleasant, New Jersey, I specialize in helping individuals—especially women—clarify their needs, stay grounded, and prepare for the legal and personal decisions ahead.

Divorce coaching is not therapy. It is a future-focused, action-oriented process that supports your emotional health while helping you create a clear, strategic path forward. It fills the gap between therapy and legal counsel.
