For Family, Child & Marriage Counselors

The Separate Ways Trusted Counselor Network

Separate Ways connects divorcing families, and couples navigating a hard decision about their marriage, with counselors we trust and verify - family and child counselors, marriage counselors, or both.

Why we built this

Quick access to a counselor we trust

Divorce affects the whole family, and sometimes the right next step isn't divorce at all. We want the people using Separate Ways to have quick access to counselors we trust and have personally verified, not a cold search - whether that's family and child support, marriage counseling, or both.

Verified, not just listed

Every counselor in the network is reviewed for licensure, relevant experience, and a genuine focus on supporting the people they work with through separation, divorce, or the decision of whether to divorce at all.

Free for families

There is no cost to a family or couple for finding a counselor through Separate Ways. Counselors who join do so to be visible to the people who need them, not to pay for placement.

Separate Ways Trusted Counselor badge

A badge for active network counselors

Approved counselors can use the official badge on their practice website and marketing while their Trusted Counselor status is active. The badge is not a ranking or recommendation.
