Each month, the Cordell & Cordell Men’s Divorce Podcast features an in-depth discussion on specific issues that affect men going through divorce.
This month, Cordell & Cordell Managing Partner/CEO Scott Trout is joined by licensed professional counselor Erika Ottolini. They detail the various emotions and struggles men can experience during the divorce process and how that factors in from both a legal and mental health perspective.
They cover the emotional dangers men must navigate during divorce and the importance of using logic over emotion when making decisions (1:00); the consequences of failing to seek support for mental health issues and the social stigma that prevents many men from getting the help they need (4:05); the problems attorneys encounter when working with a client who refuses to seek support (10:10); how men and fathers should go about finding mental health resources (15:17); how mental health support can benefit a father as he tries to co-parent with his ex (18:55); whether there is a timetable for seeking a child custody modification when working through mental health issues (24:40); and more.
