Frequently asked questions
What is divorce therapy?
Divorce therapy is individual support for someone going through or recovering from a separation or divorce. It helps people process grief, anger, and uncertainty, manage co-parenting challenges, and rebuild their sense of self and direction. It draws on approaches like CBT, grief-informed therapy, and attachment-focused work depending on what the person needs.
When should I start therapy during a divorce?
You can start at any point. Some people begin when they are deciding whether to separate. Others start during the active process, when stress is highest. Many find therapy most useful once the legal process is over and the longer-term adjustment begins. There is no wrong time to seek support.
How long does therapy for divorce usually take?
It depends on where you are in the process and what you need. Some people benefit from a focused course of eight to twelve sessions. Others find ongoing support useful through a longer transition. A therapist can help you set realistic expectations based on your situation.
Can therapy help with co-parenting after divorce?
Yes. Many people seek therapy specifically to manage the emotional challenges of an ongoing co-parenting relationship with a former partner. Therapy can help with communication, limiting conflict, and separating parenting decisions from personal grievances.
Is divorce therapy the same as couples therapy?
No. Couples therapy is aimed at improving or repairing a relationship, usually with both partners present. Divorce therapy is individual support for someone going through a separation. Some therapists also offer collaborative divorce counseling for couples who want to separate with less conflict, but this is different from individual therapy.
Can I do divorce therapy online?
Yes. Online therapy works well for divorce support since the work is conversation-based. Many people find it easier to access during the logistical challenges of a separation. Check each therapist profile for online availability.

Is divorce therapy covered by insurance in Richmond?
Coverage depends on your extended health plan. If your therapist in Richmond is a registered psychologist, psychotherapist, or clinical social worker, sessions may be eligible for reimbursement. Check your policy for covered designations and annual limits before booking.
