Separation & Divorce Counseling In Boca Raton
Divorce can feel like one of the hardest emotional transitions in life. You may be carrying grief, fear, anger, uncertainty, or a deep sense of loss, sometimes all at once. If you feel overwhelmed or unsure of what comes next, you’re not alone, and nothing about this means you’re “failing.” At The Renew Center of Florida in Boca Raton, Dr. Lisa Palmer offers divorce counseling that helps you feel emotionally safe, understood, and steady again.
What Is Divorce Counseling & How Its Different?
Divorce counseling is supportive therapy that gives you emotional support, steady guidance, and practical coping skills while you move through separation and change. In fact, on the Holmes–Rahe Life Stress Inventory, divorce is rated as the 2nd most stressful life event (73 life change units), just after the death of a spouse. It’s different from couples therapy, which focuses on repairing the relationship together, and different from post-divorce recovery, which focuses more on healing and rebuilding after the divorce is final.
While Divorce Counseling Can:
-
Help you process grief and loss
-
Support emotional adjustment during change
-
Improve communication with an ex-spouse and co-parenting
-
Build coping strategies and long-term resilience

How Divorce Counseling Helps You Heal?
Divorce can shake your emotions, routines, and sense of self. Divorce counseling gives you a steady, safe place to release what you’re carrying, understand your reactions, and rebuild from the inside out, one step at a time.
-
Emotional Processing & Grief Support: Helps you name the loss, feel it safely, and move through it without getting stuck.
-
Reducing Stress, Anxiety & Overwhelm: Teaches calming tools so your nervous system can settle and daily life feels manageable again.
-
Improving Communication & Conflict Resolution: Builds healthier boundaries and communication skills, especially when tensions run high.
-
Co-Parenting Support & Family Harmony: Supports “family counseling after divorce” by keeping kids’ needs centered and strengthening co-parenting teamwork.
-
Building Confidence & Self-Identity After Divorce: Helps you reconnect with who you are now and regain confidence in your future.
With the right support, healing becomes clearer, calmer, and more empowering.
What Is Divorce Counseling & How Its Different?
Divorce counseling uses gentle, evidence-based methods to help you feel safer inside, think more clearly, and move forward with steadier emotions and healthier choices.
-
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps you spot painful thought loops, reduce anxiety, and replace self-blame with more balanced, supportive thinking.
-
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): Supports emotional healing by helping you understand your attachment needs, soothe intense feelings, and rebuild trust in yourself and relationships.
-
Trauma-Informed Approaches: Creates a sense of safety first, so you can process shock, betrayal, or past wounds without feeling flooded or retraumatized.
-
Family Systems Approaches: Looks at family patterns and roles, making divorce family counseling especially helpful for co-parenting, children’s adjustment, and creating healthier family dynamics.
These approaches work together to support healing that feels practical, compassionate, and lasting.
Family Counseling After Divorce:
Divorce doesn’t only affect the couple, it affects children, parenting routines, and often the wider family too. Family counseling after divorce gives everyone a safe space to talk about what’s changing, feel heard, and learn healthier ways to cope.
For kids, it can reduce confusion, guilt, and anxiety by helping them understand the transition in an age-appropriate way. For parents, it supports calmer communication and more consistent parenting—so children feel secure in both homes.
Counseling also helps new family dynamics settle in, especially when co-parenting, stepfamily changes, or extended family stress creates tension. With guidance, families can strengthen boundaries, improve routines, and rebuild trust—leading to better emotional well-being, fewer conflicts, and a more stable home life for everyone.
