Finding Your Way To The End
Divorce and romantic breakup support for queer, trans, bisexual, nonbinary, intersex people.
Morty Diamond — Author & Coach
Coming November 10th
To The End Anthology
Essays on queer divorce you won’t find anywhere else.
To the End explores the full depth and breadth of divorce narratives from queer, trans and nonbinary writers exploring the key struggles, complexities and transformative insights of divorce. To the End brings recognition and clarity to the fairly new phenomenon of legal queer divorce. This book aims to be an important resource for therapists, researchers, queer community and anyone else focused on learning about the ways in which divorce is fundamentally different for queer people.
My own experience with divorce led me down a rabbit hole looking for support and I was dismayed to see how few resources we have for such a monumentally challenging experience. Now more than ever, queer people need reflection and validation as they traverse the process of divorce. Queers now have the salon, the book and tons of resources I will be adding to this site.
Feel free to send me resources that have been helpful through your divorce and I’ll add them to this site!
Thank you,
Morty

Coaching ClientsHow I’ve Helped
“I wanted to thank you for last night's salon. Not only did I learn a bit about choosing an attorney I felt super supported by those in the room.”
— salon participant“Morty assisted me with support in terms of generating my to do list, setting priorities, working with a lawyer and generally being a fantastic cheerleader when I needed it most.”
— Sandra “I needed some post-divorce healing and to process a few child-rearing-while-divorced thoughts. Morty’s coaching is warm, and generous. I really felt him holding space for me. It means more than i can say. Thank you!”
