Results of this exploratory study found that for all subjects the divorce experience affected spirituality. Individual interviews revealed how the divorce experience was affected by spirituality through common patterns and recurring themes. The twelve female volunteers were recruited from support groups, all were divorced three years or less, and each was interviewed and evaluated using the spiritual Well-Being (SWB) Scale (Paloutzian & Ellison 1982). For the majority, spirituality facilitated healing. This finding, along with the fact that over 80% sought counseling, implies that tapping spiritual strength for post-divorce recovery may have profound influence for social work intervention.
