Divorce & Separation Counseling in the South Bay

We see clients in person at our Hermosa Beach office and virtually across California.

Divorce is among life's most significant stressors, and a common one: research suggests 40 to 50% of marriages in the U.S. end in divorce (American Psychological Association). You are far from the only one going through this.

How divorce counseling helps

• Thinking through the decision without pressure either way
• Grief, anger, guilt, and the loss of a shared future
• Co-parenting, boundaries, and communication
• Rebuilding identity, confidence, and a new normal
• Managing the anxiety, low mood, or stress that come with it

Our approach

We meet you wherever you are in the process and support both the emotional and practical sides of change. It is part of our wider life transitions and individual therapy, and when divorce brings deep grief or depression, we treat the whole picture. For couples weighing whether to stay together, we also offer couples therapy.

As Jack Foley, LMFT, puts it:

"Divorce is a grief most people go through without anyone acknowledging the loss. Having one place that's just for you, no sides, no logistics, makes the whole thing more survivable."

What to expect

Care begins with a free 15-minute consultation. From there we match you thoughtfully and support you through the transition at a pace that feels manageable.
