Goals of the group

The goal of the group is to understand and voice out what it is to be contemplating legal separation. We try and create a safe space for all of us who are going through a difficult time in their marriage and look at what it really means to contemplate divorce. We then explore how we can go about this and what steps we can take.

Who is the group for?

Anyone who is facing relational struggles and is contemplating a divorce or judicial separation.

Glimpse of the regime

Session 1: Where are you at?

• Relationship Struggles
• What is it that is pushing us to contemplate separation?
• What does contemplation look and feel like for us individually?

Session 2: Things to consider

• How the relationship is right now (love or love lost)?
• What it would mean to be without the other person?
• Other relationships (children/families)
• How will people around you react to this

Session 3: How to reach decision making?

• Immediate needs
• Practicality of it
• Long term impact
• Negotiables and non negotiables

Session 4: Moving ahead from contemplation

• Now that we know what all we need - what is the most viable option
• What are things we immediately need to do
• How do we handle our own selves while all of this is happening

Learn from us & from each other

  • It was comforting to hear that other people went through similar things. And hearing what was good, what was bad, and what they would change.

  • I'd give it a 10 [out of 10]. I'm surprised at how vulnerable and open everyone was in the first session.

Ipsita Chatterjee

Ms. Ipsita Chatterjee has been a practicing psychologist for more than six years. She works as a therapist because she believes that mental health is one of the most important parts of one’s life and there is a need for having safe spaces to navigate concerns pertaining to it. Listening to people’s stories, hearing about their resilience and strengths, working with clients questioning single storied ways of being through a strength based approach, finding alternative stories and alternative definitions that work best to suit their individual needs are some of her favorite parts of the therapy process. Therapy for her more than just reduction in distress, it is also a process of allowing oneself to be, to grow and to explore.

Ipsita is an alumni of Tata Institute of Social Sciences and has worked on multiple field action projects of TISS.
