If your relationship is ending… separation therapy is one of the most underutilized methods of relational therapy. You will greatly serve yourself, your family, and your partner by honoring the years you spent together and finding a peaceful way of moving forward.

They heal individual and relational wounds and begin to engage in more connecting patterns.
