FACT:

Divorce is one of the most stressful life events you can experience…

So if you’re going through it — or even if you’ve already endured it — then you need to be properly prepared for what lies ahead!

Welcome to Functional Divorce, an oasis of information and support in the desert of stress, loneliness and confusion that you encounter during this difficult but forward-moving time in your life.

Yes, I said forward-moving. What’s done is done, and regardless of who did or said what to whom, you deserve to make a fresh start, and to make a confident assertion of all that’s possible for you.

But where to go next? Your head is probably spinning with options, or maybe you feel you have no options at all—only desolation and loneliness.

I’m Karen Finn, the creator of The Functional Divorce process, and I’m here to help you.

Divorce can be an emotional decision, or even a non-decision that’s thrust upon you. Either way, there are many non-emotional consequences that most people don’t realize when entering into the life-altering event of divorce.

Enter FunctionalDivorce.com, where support groups, as well as additional support services and thoughtful guidance and direction, are all invaluable resources to you at this transitional time in your life.

For instance, when you begin the Functional Divorce process you’ll be taking the Fisher Divorce Adjustment Scale. This is the benchmark, so you can measure how you’re adjusting and progressing in 7 different areas:

  • Self worth
  • Emotional investment in the past
  • Anger
  • Grief
  • Social intimacy
  • Social self worth
  • Overall acceptance

 

This will serve as one of the barometers of our progress, which is critical to your success with moving on after divorce.

My Functional Divorce coaching work allows me to be a volunteer resource within a divorce support group environment. I’ve found it to be extremely rewarding to donate my time and expertise in this way, and the people I work with have been an inspiration.

Now as valuable as these groups are, I realize that they don’t meet all the needs of all the people who are going through divorce.

That’s why I created the Functional Divorce Process…

I also provide individual and group workshops on a fee basis outside of the support group.

The more you know about all the ways divorce can affect you and the more you know about all the help available to you right now, the better you’ll be able to cope and the happier you’ll be in the long run.

After working with me and experiencing the Functional Divorce Process you’ll begin to see some dramatic shifts in the way you see things:

  • You’ll feel your self-esteem increase
  • You’ll become more functional as a single person instead of as one part of a marital team
  • You’ll be able to determine which aspects of your previous life worked, and which you can now discard
  • You’ll be empowered to move ahead with a renewed joy, freedom and confidence

 

It’s my job here to help you be better equipped to understand what lies ahead, and to work this understanding into a forward-moving action plan for the future—a future filled with new beginnings, new relationships and a fresh, new outlook.
