Melissa's Story

Client: Melissa, a 35-year-old married mother of two, is going through a divorce from her high school sweetheart.

​

Challenge: She faced the emotional strain of separating from a partner who was abusive, emotionally unavailable, and struggling with drug addiction. She was raising two teenage children during this tumultuous time, which added to the difficulty, along with the unresolved grief of losing her mother in her twenties.

​

Approach: Weekly therapy sessions provided her with emotional support and practical strategies to navigate the divorce, establish boundaries, and regain her self-confidence. The guidance helped her rebuild her life, prioritize her well-being, and create stability for her children.

​

Testimonial: 

"I met with Brian once a week, and he guided me through therapy sessions that were pivotal in helping me rebuild my confidence and navigate the emotional turmoil of my divorce. He provided a safe space to unpack my feelings and process my grief while equipping me with tools to establish boundaries and prioritize my well-being.

​

Brian’s support wasn’t just about managing the divorce itself—it extended to helping me envision a new, independent future. He helped me get started on a fitness routine and I reconnected with old friends that were impactful in my life. He encouraged me to rediscover my identity beyond the marriage, set personal goals, and create a stable environment for my children. With his consistent guidance, encouragement, and compassion,  I gradually found the strength to move forward, rebuild my life, and embrace a healthier, more fulfilling path."
