All I want for Christmas…
Is a divorce.
42% of marriages in the UK end in divorce and guess what? That Christmas strain on relationships is real
Family lawyers have long cited January 7th as ‘divorce day,’ the busiest for them in terms of people seeking divorce advice. The first after the holidays.
Indeed financial pressures, in-laws, spending more time together, more alcohol consumption and rising abuse rates – all of these things can contribute to people feeling like they really can’t stay in their relationships any longer.
What relationship counselling or couples therapy can do is help people considering ending their marriage to effectively communicate while they try to figure out the emotional, physical, and financial legalities that often accompany a divorce. This counsellor or therapist can also help you and your partner decide if you really want or need a divorce.
