Divorce and separation are life events, not diagnoses. Support may address emotions, practical transitions, communication and the needs of children without deciding what relationship choice is right for you.

Methods vary by professional. Check each profile and ask what they offer.
Offers space to process loss and uncertainty.
Practise clearer requests and limits, especially around co-parenting.
Your first conversation

A therapist should help you explore your values and safety, not make the decision for you.
It may help you plan communication and manage emotions; legal custody questions need qualified legal advice.
