About the Book

Chances are, your life has been touched by divorce. Whether it has happened to you or to someone you love, the pain of a marital breakup is unique, and the experience can be frightening.

In Death by Divorce, author Dr. Maria Quintero Conk (Dr. Q) brings over twenty-five years of professional experience in counseling families and shares her own experience with divorce. With an honest, straightforward approach, Dr. Q guides you toward understanding as you deal with the reality that marriages sometimes succumb to life's barricades and hurdles. You will meet three couples-Yolanda and Andy, Carlene and Aaron, and Eva and Will-all with different experiences and stories. In a clear format, Dr. Q teaches you how to survive and thrive after loss by exploring such topics as:

  • Dealing with shock and denial
  • Coping with fear, negotiation, depression, and guilt
  • Knowing that life goes on after divorce
  • Accepting and forgiving

    Dr. Q encourages you to work thoughtfully through each topic and consider how it applies to your life. Death by Divorce provides information that will lead you toward renewed joy and serenity-ultimately showing you how to move forward and live today.
