The process that is found at a divergent boundary that will help form metamorphic rocks is metamorphism. This refers to the change in the composition or structure of a rock by heat and pressure.
The transform boundary is also known as the transform fault. This type of boundary is commonly found in deep ocean floors and are typically involved in movement which aids in relieving tension in the layers of the earth.
Strike-Slip faults are found at transform boundaries because strike slip faults push and pull on opposing forces HORIZONTALLY exactly like a transform boundary.

Haiti is located near a transform boundary. Please see the related question for more information.
The most common feature found at a transform boundary is a fault. An example of this is the San Andreas Fault Line.
Metamorphic rocks form when rocks change after undergoing extreme pressure or temperature increase. These temperature changes must be hot enough to reorganize matter within the rock but not hot enough to melt it.
Transform boundaries occur where tectonic plates slide by each other. A famous transform boundary is located in California at the San Andreas Fault.
During this transform plate movement, the plates experiences friction and shearing, accompanied by compressive stress, thereby increases the transfer of heat. Due to this, the rocks in those region undergoes metamorphism process because of the high temperature and pressure condition.

San Andreas Fault
A certain type of strike-slip fault is found at a transform plate boundary.
Strike-Slip faults are found at transform boundaries because strike slip faults push and pull on opposing forces HORIZONTALLY exactly like a transform boundary.
