Divorce & Separation Counselling
How do I even begin to explain what’s happening?
How We Can Help
Going through a divorce or separation can be one of the most emotionally challenging times in anyone’s life. Whether the decision was mutual or not, the process often brings grief, confusion, and a lot of unanswered questions.
At Relationships Plymouth, we’re here to help you make sense of it all — whether you're coming alone, with your partner, or as co-parents navigating life after separation.
Why do people separate?
Every relationship is unique, but some common reasons people seek separation or divorce include:
A breakdown in commitment
Infidelity
Ongoing conflict or arguments
Feeling unequal in the relationship
Financial stress and disagreements
No matter the reason, we offer a space for respectful, open dialogue and support.
What can divorce counselling help with?
Our divorce and separation counselling can help you:
Reflect on what led to the end of the relationship
Communicate more clearly with your partner or ex-partner
Find closure and begin the healing process
Navigate the emotional and practical challenges of separation
Adjust to your new life with confidence and clarity
Whether you come on your own or together, our counsellors are here to support you every step of the way.
Support for families and children
We understand that the impact of divorce can extend far beyond the couple. That’s why we also offer:
Family Counselling — to help the whole family process and adapt to the changes
Children and Young People’s Counselling — to support children in understanding and coping with the separation in a safe, age-appropriate way
"Counselling offers a safe space to express and explore feelings with someone who can help in a positive and practical way. It has helped me enormously on my journey to deal with anxieties and problems."
