Let’s Talk About It: Ripples of Divorce Across the Lifespan

Divorce isn’t just a moment; it’s a journey with lasting impact. Our annual citywide Shabbaton brings expert insight, shared learning, and supportive spaces to explore how divorce affects individuals, families, and Jewish communities, whether the experience is recent or long past.

Batsheva Ganz is a licensed psychotherapist, certified mediator, and certified divorce specialist with a private practice based in Denver, Colorado. With a clinical focus on individuals, couples, and families, she brings her expertise to the complexities of relationship transitions. Licensed in both Florida and Colorado, she bridges the gap between clinical support and practical resolution. As the co-founder Areivit, she is dedicated to shifting the communal narrative around divorce, providing specialized training for clergy and community leaders to ensure they are equipped to support families with empathy and skill.
