Seattle Divorce Support Group

The Seattle Divorce Support Group can be helpful if:


  • you want a supportive place to talk, ​in person, about the feelings (fear, sadness, anger, resentment, etc.) associated with separation and/or divorce. 
  • you're struggling to manage the challenges of co-parenting. 
  • you feel lonely or isolated around people whose partnerships are still intact. 
  • you feel concerned about losing other relationships in your life (ex in-laws, mutual friends, etc.).
  • your current support system either does not understand or has reached their limit with divorce-related feelings and conversation.
  • you want to build a supportive social network--one that is uniquely your own--with others who understand how you feel.
  • you want to learn from and provide support for others who are traveling the separation/divorce path.

The transition between a familiar past and an uncertain future is fraught with complex emotions.  The frequency and intensity our feelings can cause us to question our sanity.  Not only are these feelings normal, they are helping us create the space that's needed for new connections to develop. It is in that space that an in-person divorce group support can be most useful.

I hope you'll consider joining our community.
