Transitioning After Divorce

You have concluded your divorce. Now what? During the process you probably didn’t think much about what life might look like on the other side. You will need to take time to care for yourself and to reflect on the life-change you just went through. Give yourself this time to regroup physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Take time to put your situation into perspective. Remember why you made the choice you did and realize you can make new choices now. Form a list of benefits to your new situation. Keeping a journal during this transition can be helpful.

It is important to find activities that you and your children enjoy. Try to build new connections and create new memories with them in this new phase of life. Build a new sense of family.
