The New Jersey divorce rate is 2.2 for every 1000 couples. It is one of the lowest in the country, but that doesn’t mean divorce isn’t still common. Deciding to separate from someone who used to be your best friend is a painful, difficult decision. The only person who can ultimately make that decision is you, but a Toms River couples counselor can help.
Couples counselors and divorce counselors will lay out the options for you and your partner, help you make a decision, and ease the transition no matter what you choose. Counseling can save a relationship from divorce, but only if both partners truly want that. A therapist's job is to help you understand what you want and how to get there.
Navigate divorce with emotional maturity and good conflict resolution skills. Schedule an appointment with a Toms River couples counselor today.

A divorce can be a logistical nightmare, more so if you own property, have kids, or share finances. Untangling your lives will take time, so it’s important to set up logistics and expectations as soon as you can. If you decide to stay together, talking logistics is still important. What were the stressors that led you to this place of discussing divorce, and how can you make sure to avoid them in the future? What changes of responsibilities, workload, communication, or intimacy need to be made?
