Breakup Counseling in Birmingham, MI—Oakland Counselors

It is very painful breaking up from one’s spouse, lover or partner: it usually causes a bad feeling and a negative emotion. Only a few people are strong enough to handle their post-break-up experiences. And starting a new life after break-ups could be a very difficult thing to do for many people.

Common Symptoms of Relationship Breakups

Here are some common symptoms revealed by people who have recently gone through relationship breakups:

  • Feeling anxious or troubled with anxiety
  • Physical discomfort
  • Unable to sleep well
  • Feeling depressed
  • Loss of real motivation
  • Planning to kill oneself
  • Dearth of hope, etc.

Anyone experiencing one or all of the critical conditions highlighted above should seek relationship breakup counseling, as soon as possible. A trained relationship therapist will assist you in dealing with post-break-up headaches, things most people cannot handle on their own.

Challenges People Usually Faced After Breakups

  • Social challenge: After break-ups, people could appear withdrawn as they are ashamed to mingle freely with their former friends and associates.
  • Financial challenge: Money problems can also crop up after break-ups because each person has to fend for himself or herself once separation has been completed.
  • Mental challenges: Relationship break-ups sometimes push people into mental health issues, like acute depression, anxiety and other major mental illnesses.

How Can a Qualified Relationship Counselor Help in this Case?

When you contact a qualified relationship Oakland counselor or therapist, he or she will be able to help you in the following ways. A therapist will:

  • Take time to listen attentively to you and provide some practical suggestions
  • Give you real-time counseling according to the initial information you have provided
  • Provide practical guidance you can follow and implement
  • Guide you through processes of self-recovery
  • Introduce you into an atmosphere necessary for positivity and self-confidence-boosting
  • Help you remove guilt and self-accusation from your mind
  • Help you improve your communication ability

Review for Sandra Quigley

★★★★★
*****I have been a patient of Sandra's for nearly 2 years now and I really can't say enough good things about her work with me. She is a true Christian counselor and that was exactly the perspective I needed to guide me down the path God was trying to lead me. She definitely strengthened my faith and made many of life's big problems seem like small speed bumps when looking at the big picture!! I highly recommend Sandra Q. if you are looking for the someone who honestly cares about you and the journey you are on. Remember, there’s ultimately only one way to peace in your life, and that’s to walk daily with the Prince of Peace, Christ Jesus!! *****

I wouldn’t recommend it – one of the worst therapists I’ve ever seen

★☆☆☆☆
The doctor (PhD) I saw for therapy decided, on the second session, to pay more attention to doing things on his phone than to listening to me. He thought he was hiding what he was doing behind his portfolio, but he was not. I could see the reflection of what he was doing, and he was looking down more than up. He was pretending to listen but didn't do a very good job of that, because when I stopped talking, he would incorrectly try to restate what I said or, make a comment on what I said which turned out to not be relevant because it was clear he wasn't listening. He did not seem to want to be there. It was a horrible experience. I called the next day to complain to the lady on the phone, and got a sincere "I'm sorry" and that's it. When I got the bill (very expensive, by the way), I have been attempting to call the office to pay it over the phone but I keep getting told that the people that do the billing are currently busy and that I should call back. It should not be that difficult for someone to take a credit card number and apply it to my bill, especially a bill I shouldn't have to pay due to horrible service. I hope the other therapists at Thriveworks are better than the one I selected, and actually have interest in helping their patients.

She helped change my life

★★★★★
Dear Marcy, I can't thank you enough for recommending your therapist Dawn Gaden to me. She has helped change my life. I have always struggled with feeling misunderstood. But recently I fell into a deep depression; beyond something I could resolve myself. Therapy was required for my recovery. Since childhood I have been weary of therapists because I would talk through my problems but I didn't get tools and strategies to handle my problems better. Dawn has changed that. For the first time I leave each appointment not only relieved from having talked my issues through, but more importantly with tools to help me move forward. She has introduced me to methods I had considered silly, but now I could live without. I am proud of the person I am becoming and the journey I have chosen to take. Thank you for all you have done to change my life and my family's future.

She Inspires Hope

★★★★★
I found Sandra Quigley on the web while searching for a Christian counselor. I was having a lot of anxiety about making a career change. She not only helped through the anxieties, she also helped me with concerns in my personal life. Sandra's non-judgmental and compassionate approach, made me feel comfortable and hopeful.

Everything I needed

★★★★★
I found Sandra Quigley in the back of a magazine (Psychology Today). I desperately needed someone to talk to. Newly retired with plenty of time to allow my mind to take over my life, I felt constantly anxious and very out of sorts. Enter Sandra Quigley- compassionate, non-judgmental, kind, and gentle. She is everything that I needed to heal myself. I had never talked to a therapist before, so this was a new venture. It was very important to me that I find someone with whom I could feel comfortable. Right away, I felt comfortable. I did have assignments; I never was prescribed a single drug. She went out of her way to help me specifically with my issues- finding me articles, books, telling stories. I never felt uncomfortable; I felt and still feel that my time with Sandra is valuable. With Sandra’s help, I have unearthed a much calmer, happier, together self that now wakes up each morning looking forward to the day ahead. We all have our baggage- I never once realized that I could unpack that bag and put my crap away. I now get to walk through life so much lighter!!

So helpful!

★★★★★
I really love the helpful and peaceful approach at Thriveworks. I have known Marcy for a long time and her ability to work through tough spots and discuss personalities makes her a lot of fun for me. Time flies when we chat and that is a good thing for a guy like me who is always worried about time. I also love Dawn Gadens video blogs! Wow...so insightful and easy to access. I don't see Dawn in counseling but if she is that good on video I have to believe she is great in person. Give a shot...I bet you will love them.
