The work starts within
Anger, confusion, sadness, grief, fear, shame, guilt. Divorce can bring all of them to the surface—sometimes in the same day.
This isn't about burying those feelings or forcing yourself to be positive. It's about giving yourself room to notice them, understand them and choose how you respond, at a pace that works for you.
Here when you need it
From grief and co-parenting dynamics to mental health, money, shame and dating again.
A place to explore what's happening, make sense of what you're feeling, and find perspective. Even at 2 a.m., when there's no one you can call or text.
The more you share, the more relevant your recommendations can become. Carefully curated books, podcasts, videos, articles and practical guides connected to what you're actually going through.
Explore approaches for understanding yourself and navigating difficult emotions. Find healthy practices that fit your life, then build on what helps.
You don't have to solve your whole future today. Notice patterns, respond rather than react, and make thoughtful choices along the way.
Six areas. Your own route.
Divorce touches more than one part of life. Each focus area has its own guided path and resources, so you can start wherever you need support. There's no required order.
Explore The PathSmall practices. Your own way.
There isn't one right way to reconnect with yourself. For some, it's meditation, breathwork, yoga or a daily gratitude practice. For others, it's a walk outside, time in the ocean, reading, journaling or a quiet bath before bed.
What matters is finding healthy practices that give you space to slow down, look inward and better understand your thoughts and emotions.
Start small. Find what works.
Build from there.

The meaning behind the mark
On rocky ground, cairns—small stacks of stones—help mark the way when the trail becomes difficult to follow.
A cairn doesn't do the climbing for you. It offers a little guidance about where to place your feet next. That's what we want Switchbacks to be for you.
Anyone going through separation or divorce, at any stage: before anything is filed, in the thick of it, or years later. Whether it was your decision, theirs or mutual, and with or without kids.
Your sessions and notes are saved in your browser, on your device. To reply, the AI receives the recent conversation; our relay passes it through and doesn't keep a copy. Payments are handled by Stripe, so we never see your card. Read the privacy policy for the details.
No. It draws on evidence-based approaches and well-known experts, and it can help you get ready for a conversation with a therapist, but it isn't a therapist and doesn't diagnose or treat anything.

Membership
A simple monthly membership

Switchbacks isn't therapy, and it isn't legal advice. It's support between the conversations you have with your therapist, your attorney and the people who love you. If you're in crisis, call or text 988 (in the US). If you're in danger, call 911.

Start where you are, not where you think you should be.
