SEPARATION AND DIVORCE

Gundersen Lutheran Medical Center, Inc. | Gundersen Clinic, Ltd. 3601_1114

Many marriages reach a point where one partner or the other has thoughts of leaving. These thoughts can be short-lived or persistent, ongoing concerns. When these feelings are irresolvable, often the consequence is separation or divorce.

Whether you’re considering a separation or divorce or are in the process of one, it can be the most trying situation one may ever experience. Separation and divorce is a complex issue which can affect various aspects of your life such as self-esteem, concentration, parenting, and productivity. During these times, you may find your feelings overwhelming. As you attempt to deal with questions such as – How will I make it on my own? How will it affect my kids? What will my family think? And How do I know I’m making the right decision?, you may need assistance.

If you find yourself struggling with these issues, the Gundersen Employee Assistance Program (EAP) can help you work through them. Call your EAP at (608) 775-4780 or (800) 327-9991 to schedule a confidential appointment. There is someone there to help.
