It is very common for both men and women to struggle with a separation or eventual divorce.  Nobody gets married with the intention of getting divorced, so there is often a grief and loss period related to the failed relationship.  Grief and loss can include not only sadness, but anger, betrayal, and resentment.

For some individuals, there has been a fracture in the parent-child relationship and that is creating significant distress to the parent.  Self-care during a separation or after a divorce are critical and Dr. Alvarez has the experience and compassion to help both men and women manage the emotional impacts of these life-changing events, including parent-child contact problems post-divorce.
