a difficult time, and simply because you asked the question, I would suggest some type of counseling. Most places of business offer some type of "employee assistance programs'" which include counseling. Many insurances offer this service too. Typically either scenario covers 8-10 sessions before you have to pay.

Although I too felt I did not need counseling my lawyer suggested it and I did take her advice. If nothing else it's nice to talk to someone who is nonjudgmental no matter what you say and of course everything is confidential.

Most people going through divorce will get from point A to point B on their own, counseling shortens that journey.

You talk about moving too . . . I would not make any rash decisions until you have gotten a grip on your situation. That's my two cents worth.
