‘Divorce Recovery’

This workshop is facilitated by Nigel Summerton over 8 weeks on a Thursday between 4.30 & 7.30pm. This is a course that can help increase your self-awareness and self-confidence. It will give you the opportunity to meet with other people in a safe confidential environment who are going through a similar experience as yourself.

We will look at ‘what went wrong?’, and discuss our journeys to gain insight into real life relationship difficulties, from the beginning to the end.

We will explore how relationships can go from a loving meeting of two people, to an unrecoverable breakdown in which these same two people can’t live together, and therefore have to separate, and gain insight into why we choose the partners that we do.

Through open discussion and feedback from one another, we will give you an opportunity to identify specific things in a relationship that we might do ourselves that don’t help.
We can consider our partners part in the breakdown of our relationship, and what prevented you as a couple from being able to work through the difficulties that arose.

We will help you to consider positive ways of being in a close loving relationship, and how to work on communicating in an open and honest way about the things that cause problems, like, money, sex, children, in-laws, friends etc. You will get an opportunity to learn and practice the skills that promote this important intimate communication.

We will consider the impact of divorce and separation on children, families and friends.

We will look at the things we need to know to be able to move forward.

Address our attitudes and behaviours that will help us in future relationships.
