KIND WORDS ABOUT THE BOOK

ABOUT THE BOOK
Light on the Other Side of Divorce: Discovering the New You is a roadmap for turning what is often seen as a deficit into an opportunity for growth and healing. Once we accept that through this struggle we will know ourselves more deeply then we are no longer bound by how culture defines us. This is the essence of love. This freedom is our birthright.
What is groundbreaking about Dr. Cohen’s book is her thoughtful step-by-step approach that transforms our notions of love and marriage.
Something that makes the process of divorce no longer something to be feared. It is now an opportunity to grow into our new selves and the bridge to our new tomorrow.

Wow! Everything that can be broken comes with a manual to properly set it up and how to fix it when something isn’t working correctly. The divorce process is broken but there is no complete manual. UNTIL NOW. Based on Elizabeth’s personal and professional experience, she has created a true step by step divorce manual. If you are just starting the process, this is a must-read before you call any lawyer. If you are going through the process and are stuck (it will happen), just like any manual, go to the section that applies to you and find out how to get through it. This book is an antidote to a sick and broken system.
If you want to not only survive divorce, but thrive in the afterglow, read this book. It’s wonderful!

With more than 25 years working as a divorce attorney and mediator I can tell you with confidence that heartache, shame, distress and uncertainty is nearly inescapable. Even if you’re highly successful by all external measures, a breakup can leave you questioning your life decisions and feeling insecure. I highly recommend Light at the Other Side of Divorce: Discovering the New You to serve as your constant companion. To lift you up, and to get you through. Dr. Cohen is both wise and relatable. She will help you through the heart wrenching decision whether or not to leave a long-term relationship. As a veteran divorce lawyer and mediator, I am sure my clients could benefit from Dr. Cohen’s personal stories, professional insights and journaling exercises.
If you’re looking for some actionable advice around making tough decisions you’re in the right place.

As a leading divorce attorney for more than 30 years, I recommend a short list of books to my clients, and Light on the Other Side of Divorce: Discovering the New You just shot to the top. Dr. Elizabeth Cohen gives readers a step-by-step process for navigating the maze of divorce with compassion, wit, and the benefit of her lived experience. She’s seen divorce objectively, as a professional therapist, and subjectively, as someone who’s been there, done that, and knows exactly what you need to make it through.
This book will not only show you the way out of the maze, it will also transform you and set you up for the future you deserve! A must read!

This new vantage point will allow you to see things through a different lens and the world will appear brighter and more vibrant than ever before.

How I wish I had this book when I was going through a breakup that nearly crushed me! It would have surely been worn and dog-eared on my nightstand. Chock full of relatable, tangible, and practical tools for getting through every aspect of moving forward, this book will have you turning the last page a more assured and hopeful version of yourself. Dr. Cohen has walked several miles in your shoes, and it shows. A divine “way showerer” (so good, and yes, it’s in the book!), she leads you gently and deftly out of the dark and into the light with great empathy, compassion, and insight.
If you want to not only survive divorce, but thrive in the afterglow, read this book. It’s wonderful!
