The Rewrite...A Podcast about Divorce, Choice & New Beginnings

The Truth About Divorce and Your Children


Listen Later

On this episode of The Rewrite, I’m joined by Erica Komisar—psychoanalyst, parent coach, and author of The Parent’s Guide to Divorce. 
At a time when divorce is often framed as a fresh start for adults, Erica brings the focus back to what matters most: our children.
With over 30 years of clinical experience, she shares a powerful truth—divorce itself isn’t what harms children. It’s chronic conflict, instability, and disrupted attachment that leave lasting effects.
In this conversation, we talk about:
• How to protect your child’s emotional well-being during divorce
• The importance of attachment and feeling safe
• Common mistakes parents don’t realize they’re making
• How to raise resilient, emotionally secure children through change
• Her Book:  A Parent’s Guide To Divorce 

This episode is a must-listen for any parent navigating separation and wanting to do it with intention, awareness, and care.
