How Past Trauma Can Lead To Divorce

Do you know that many relationship problems and tricky dynamics that are really hard to fix in a relationship happen because of things that happened long before the couple ever met each other? I’m Katherine Miller, and I’ve been a divorce attorney in New York City and New York State for over 30 years. I see this in my practice all the time: a difficult conflict dynamic where each person feels deeply triggered by the other, despite both having good intentions. Each person feels they’re in the right, and they are, yet these conflicts arise because of trauma and problems that predate their relationship.
I recently interviewed Dr. Don Wood of the Inspired Performance Institute on my radio show, where he discussed how unresolved early trauma can lead to tragic results in marriages, often culminating in divorce. If you’re interested in learning more about this, I encourage you to subscribe to my podcast, Divorce Dialogues, available wherever you listen to podcasts or on the podcast website, divorce dialogues.com.
On the other hand, if you’re struggling with these conflicts and feel it’s too late to resolve them on your own, don’t hesitate to reach out for help. You can contact us at www.millerlaw.com. Thanks for listening.
