Abstract

The aim of this research was to seek effective counselling intervention measures to prevent duskdivorce and to support elderly divorced women in overcoming difficulties while making decisionsabout divorce. A total of 18 sessions of data were collected from November 2012 to March 2013 forthis research. Also, we have used an analyzing method of Miles and Huberman(1994) in order todemonstrate this research. It was found that when elderly women divorce, they initially haveincreased negative feelings towards their husband, are frustrated about unsolved conflicts amongtheir original family members, and have more conflicts with their children. Moreover, it was foundthat they experienced constant financial troubles and had difficulty in building relationships withpeople. However, having these consultations allowed them to forgive others, learn from the past,start to understand their family, and have a more positive view of life. This research was conductedto support divorced women and to find a way to provide beneficial counselling regarding a subjectthat has not been addressed sufficiently in past researches.
