Family life is filled with various events, emotions, experiences, expectations, they can be joyful and not so joyful. Marriage can be easy or require a lot of effort, but what happens when the “happily ever after” ends? What is quietly lost in the hustle and bustle of everyday life when a couple is on the verge of divorce? Both partners equally have to cope with difficulties after a divorce. But when there are children in the family system, divorce and its consequences have its own nuances, both for partners and for children in particular, but we will not dwell on this issue separately. When a family system is destroyed, all its participants experience this event in their own way. As a rule, the family system collapses long before the spouses decide on an official divorce, and some do not decide on it at all, wanting to remain in the status of spouses for various reasons. They turn to a psychologist as partners who want to keep their significant other who wants to leave, and those who are the initiator of the divorce, but doubt the correctness of their decision, clients also come with a request that the psychologist persuade the other half to decide to divorce. Couples who have reached an impasse and divorce is considered less often as a way out of the vicious circle of disagreements. In general, the divorce process goes through several stages, but most often men and women turn to help when the divorce has already been formalized on paper and the problem has been formally resolved, but they don’t know how to move on. The main questions that plague such clients are how to move on without a partner ? What to do with feelings that don't go away? how to deal with loneliness? what did I do wrong? how to start trusting people again? Essentially, a person going through a divorce is in a situation of loss (grief), because most of his life was connected with a person who is now not actually present in his life, only memories, things, places, common acquaintances remain , shared commitments, a reminder that a partner was a significant part of a life that is now destroyed. There are many approaches and models of divorce, but the most common are the classification of Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, who originally proposed 5 stages of grief, applying them to the situation of divorce , and Maslow's dialectical model of divorce. Maslow's dialectical model of divorce includes families of stages and the necessary therapeutic methods that are most appropriate at this stage: Emotional divorce Time of reflection and despair before divorce Legal divorce Economic divorce Establishing a balance between parental responsibilities and custody Time of exploration of yourself and restoring balance. Psychological divorce The pre-divorce situation, the divorce process itself and, of course, the post-divorce state are difficult to cope with. After the divorce, work is carried out with one client who is overwhelmed by pain and despair, fears and concerns. He doesn’t know how to live on, how to enjoy life. Of course, first of all, it is necessary to help the client react to his emotional states, so that he allows himself to grieve and get angry; we must support the client in experiencing mental trauma. The ultimate goal of the work may be to achieve balance and establish an independent lifestyle that will meet the client’s wishes and needs. Accompanying the client at every stage of the post-divorce period, our task is to provide the necessary assistance adequate to the situation. The protest stage can be accompanied by disparate, chaotic reactions (from love to hate), we must help curb this entire flow, help separate emotions and work through them. During a period of protest, clients often need intensive moral support from a therapist; attention can be paid to issues of a person’s self-regulation so that he can learn to independently cope with surging emotions and impulses. The ultimate goal of the work is to achieve.
