Divorce is emotionally devastating for anyone. However, when abuse is a factor you'll need time to emotionally heal. Seek out a therapist for yourself and your children in the wake of divorcing an abuser.  Many women's shelters offer free or discounted counseling for women ending abusive relationships. See what kind of aid is available in your area. If you have insurance, many plans cover mental health. Browse your insurance company's website or call during operating hours to see what's covered. You can also ask for a referral to a good therapist from your primary care physician. He or she might have a colleague or friend who can take your insurance. You'll need a lot of emotional support during this time of your life. Be honest with those you're close to about what's been going on. Be upfront about the fact you need help and support during this time. While you may lose some friends in the situation, hold onto and be grateful to those who stand by you during the divorce. If you need a place to stay while searching for another home, consider a women's shelter. Women's shelters can provide housing and help with relocation services. You can find shelters by browsing the internet or asking at local hospitals, churches, and psychiatric clinics.

See a therapist. Talk to family and friends. Look into women's shelters.
