Understanding the need of it, WAITT has onboarded experts of marital counselling who also specialize in divorce cases. We have got some best counsellors in the field!

What is Divorce Counselling?

It is assumed that a counsellor helps client to take the decision of whether to stay married or to get divorced. However, that is not the case. The counsellors do not give in direct solution or their decision about divorce. Rather in such type of counselling, the counsellor helps the client to be psychologically strong so that they can take the decision themselves.

A lot of factors are involved when one decides to get divorced, but their thinking and decision making may get clouded due to other’s judgement. But a counsellor tries to understand the individual’s or the couple’s entire story and then they guide them on the right path.

Divorce counselling can be split into 2 parts-

1. Pre-Divorce Counselling:

Pre-divorce counselling, as the name suggests, is when couple is thinking about either separation or getting divorced. Here, it is checked whether the couple have tried the ways to understand their partner and do they need to go down this path. The analysis is done in a realistic way with help of different therapies and approaches.

2. Post-Divorce Counselling:

In post-divorce counselling, the counsellor helps the individual or the couple to get back on the track of resilience. Divorce can be a life changing situation; some people might get affected by it badly. Stress, loneliness can be factors, to name a few, which people could face after divorce. Dealing with mental wellbeing post-divorce is the main aim here.

Moreover, they are trained to conduct a few therapies and approaches which helps the client to understand themselves more.

FAQs related to Divorce Counselling:

Taking decisions regarding divorce might not be easy. The amount of stress and tension that it can bring in is huge. In this process, a person can get saturated mentally. The mental exhaustion can lead to poor decision making. And hence, divorce counselling can help the couple to get to their decisions in a stress-free way.

Here are a few FAQs which might make you understand more about this topic:

Not necessarily. The counsellor analyses the differences between the couple and the couple’s willingness to give their marriage another shot. If that works out then the marriage might not end in divorce. There may be a few cases, where the couple might have reached the dead end. At such time, divorce could be an option but it shouldn’t be taken in a negative way. It can be viewed as a new beginning in one’s life!

It depends on the case. The counsellor doesn’t push the couple to try to save their marriage, neither does counsellor push the couple to get a divorce. The counsellor guides the couple in the direction that suits them.

We need to understand that marriage counsellors do not always guide you to save your marriage, because in some cases the damage goes beyond repair. Sometimes, it is not a damage in the marriage, but two individuals might find out that they aren’t compatible for each other.

Also, even if your marriage ends up in divorce after counselling then it doesn’t mean that counselling failed. You always find out something important about yourself in counselling, so there is no 100% failure in counselling!

This varies from case to case and the counsellor’s approach. The counsellor needs to understand whether the work needs to be done on emotional level or on thought level. Depending on that and on other factors, the counsellor decides the type of therapy for the couple.
