Resources

Welcome to our resources page!

This will be a very important area of this site giving you access to tools and people to help you get your life back.

Here is a list of just some of who and what you will find here.

LEGAL ASSISTANCE

Ok, the marriage is over.   You need legal advice.  But who can you trust?   Should you get a family lawyer?  A mediator?  Collaborative law???   Do you want someone who is tough as nails or someone with a soft spot for children?  So many decisions and so many choices!  Find a wide variety of local, legal professionals right here in our legal assistance section - study each Professional Profile and select the person or Company best suited for your individual circumstances.  To begin, click on a picture and get your pen and paper ready....

FINANCIAL

Your financial situation will inevitably change as a result of your separation.  It may be the exception and change for the better, but more likely a struggle will be in your future, at least temporarily.  Child and spousal support can take months to be established, but even then, enforcement is often a nightmare.  A steady and sufficient source of income is critical to your success as a single person, but what if you've never worked before?  What if you left the work force to raise your family?  What if your children are still young enough to need child care, but you need to leave  home to work?   Our financial section can guide you through these issues and more by introducing you to career counselors/coaches, home based business ideas, secondary education providers, financial planners and even retirement experts.  Find local resources here to help you provide for your future.

REAL ESTATE SUPPORT

The sad truth is that somebody usually has to move in the aftermath of a separation.  Often, both parents have to relocate and the entire family is uprooted and left wondering where "home" is.  A dedicated Real Estate Professional is essential to the process of planting new roots.  Our Real Estate section will introduce you to compassionate Professionals who will guide you through every step of relocating - from preparing your home for sale (staging), to finding temporary housing and ultimately to finding a new place to call "home".

COUNSELING SUPPORT

Chances are you might be a bit angry right about now.  Maybe even really angry.  Maybe you can't even see straight because you are so mad.  Or hurt. Or confused.  Or overwhelmed.  You don't have to figure this out on your own.  There are compassionate, trained professionals in your area who can help you work through your feelings until you come out on the other side feeling like yourself again.  Whether you need help with anger management, forgiveness, self esteem or what to do next, this section can guide you to the right Counselor, Coach or support group.  Most people don't even know how much support there is out there and how beneficial it can be to join a group who has walked in your shoes.  Take a walk through our site to learn more.....

CAREER SUPPORT

Now that you are going to be at least partially responsible for supporting yourself and your children, it's a good idea to do it as efficiently and enjoyably as possible.  If you already have a great career, then carry on!   BUT....  if you have never worked outside the home, or if you left the work force to raise your children, or you have a job that you HATE or you need more money (and who doesn't...), then spend some time in our career support section.  We have information on trade schools, Community Colleges,  home based businesses, resume tips, how to get credit for your life experiences, how to find your authentic vocation and more!
