After a divorce can therapy help with depression and loneliness?
Yes. Once the sadness and pain of dissolution begins to leave there is often an identity transition that follows. A two-person identity becomes a single identity. This transition often means relinquishing the emotional dependency in favor of establishing a new identity as a single person. This often is a painful process of self-discovery. It may involve living in a new home, exploring new interests, activities, and making new friends. During this time it is a good idea to call on trusted friends and relatives for support and encouragement.
