Every relationship journeys to the crossroads of transformation. Perhaps your relationship or marriage is in crisis or failing. Or you don’t know how to heal after an affair. Or maybe it’s stagnant, and you long to take your relationship to a new level for the sheer pleasure and inspiration of it.

A ritual for saying goodbye to your relationship with honour and respect.
A separation or divorce is a terrible time of crisis. The divorce process heightens feelings of fear, guilt, vulnerability, and hopelessness. Angry conflict increases as the relationship ends. Worst of all, the children–if any–get caught in the crossfire.
In a private, full-day session, Andrea Wigglesworth helps couples create a positive ending for their marriages. She can help you close the chapters of the anger, pain, and destructive cycle that is the story of your marriage. She’ll help you to begin a new, productive story for your separated lives. When children are involved, this becomes critical. Although the spousal relationship ends, your relationship as co-parents will last a lifetime. Children thrive, even after divorce, when they’re allowed to have a secure relationship with both parents.
