Telling your partner that you want to separate is a daunting prospect. Doing it wrong could have consequences like escalating conflict, creating unnecessary hurt for those around you and, in extreme circumstances, it could be dangerous. Preparing yourself to tell your spouse the right way can set the tone for a low-conflict separation from day one.

In this episode, we speak to our Senior Separation Consultant, Arabella Feltham, about:

safety as your number one consideration
discussing separation if moving out isn’t an option
the right moment to bring up separation
having a support person present
what to consider if you have children
how to prepare yourself
the words to use to avoid escalation
how to approach a trial separation
emotional reactions to expect from your partner and yourself.
