What if you could be empowered to thrive throughout your divorce process and beyond?
Or find peace within your co-parenting journey?
Even saving a little money along the way?
With the right SUPPORT and the right MINDSET, you can find the new beginning you are searching for...
Divorce and co-parenting with an ex can both be emotionally challenging experiences. Ones that involve numerous decisions, ranging from property division and child custody arrangements to financial matters to who keeps the dog. My coaching offers a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to express their feelings, frustrations, and concerns. I provide expertise, emotional support, and a plan for your future so that you can navigate this journey with ease. I provide guidance to make informed decisions that align with the client's priorities.
Divorce can wage war on all aspects of your life and potentially blindside you into costly, lengthy litigation.
Expenses associated with litigation:
Filing Fees, Attorney Fees, Guardian ad Litem Fees, Court Costs, Process Servers, Private Investigators, Therapists, Evaluations, Mediation
Missed Time from Work
More conflict = More money
With me as your coach, we will work together to mitigate the trauma (financial and emotional) that comes from excessive time spent in a courtroom.
My coaching helps clients identify their goals and priorities during the divorce process and subsequent co-parenting relationships. I assist in clarifying what matters most to the client, such as child custody arrangements, financial stability, or maintaining an amicable relationship with the ex-spouse. By understanding their clients' objectives, I can help them make informed decisions and set realistic expectations.
The American Bar Association recognizes coaching/consulting as an alternative dispute resolution method. Effective communication and conflict resolution skills are crucial during divorce proceedings. As your divorce coach, I assist my clients in improving their communication skills, especially when dealing with their ex-spouse or negotiating settlements. I provide strategies to navigate difficult conversations, manage conflict, and promote constructive dialogue to achieve more favorable outcomes.
I know if you are anything like I was years ago, you are feeling a little lost, very angry, and ALONE...
I sat right where you are wondering if things would ever be bright again, if I would ever not feel broken. I promise you the sun will rise again and so will you... you are no longer alone!
Let me tell you a little about my story...
I survived my own messy divorce and am still navigating the subsequent co-parenting journey. I am also a survivor of a lengthy, expensive, custody battle riddled with conflict, alienation tactics, extortion, and false allegations.
My journey through the family court system burned who I once was to the ground. Leaving me with a panic disorder and a trauma response that has taken years, and a great deal of inner work, to even begin to heal.
I am rising from the ashes of what was intended to destroy me, writing one hell of a comeback story…
I will help you do the same!
Not all divorces have to be traumatic or high-conflict. However, if refusal to compromise, focusing only on blame/revenge, and false allegations are terms you are familiar with, you may be experiencing a high-conflict divorce. Setting boundaries, implementing different parenting styles, and having support can help you navigate through the process.
I work with you one on one to navigate the business of divorce, identifying the best legal process that fits your individual needs.
Supporting you in finding your courage, strength, peace, and grace.
Have you found yourself being forced to co-parent with someone who broke you? Someone that you are trying to heal from?
Co-parenting can be challenging during and after a divorce. Choosing parallel parenting might be the route for you. Limiting contact and setting boundaries will be important to maintaining your sanity and will help in keeping the children out of the animosity. However, in reality, the concept of co-parenting can be impossible in some situations, especially when dealing with a high-conflict personality. We can explore alternative parenting styles, such as parallel parenting, which may be a better fit for you. I am well versed in dispute resolution techniques, effective communication strategies, and adapting parenting plans to mitigate issues that will inevitably arise.
During a divorce, you will inevitably go through the 5 stages of grief as defined by Elisabeth Kubler-Ross: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance. Likely not in that order either, as you may find yourself triggered and circling back into previous stages. As you begin to round the bend to acceptance, you will begin to think of how to begin rebuilding your life. That is where I come in. We walk the path of endless possibilities, healing, and honoring your past. I also get you connected with my trusted network of resources, all dedicated to helping you build the new you!

While I am Certified in Divorce Coaching, I took it a step further to become certified in high conflict situations and Dispute Resolution. I also wanted to become proficient in legal language so I have completed paralegal coursework. While those fancy titles and bookwork add to my qualifications, my being a survivor is what sets me aside in this business. I survived an extremely high-conflict custody battle and subsequent nightmare of a co-parenting situation. I have over a decade of personal experience with attorneys, courtrooms, family law, private investigations, high-conflict personalities, narcissistic tendencies, false allegations, and smear campaigns, all ending in successful (sometimes!) parallel parenting with a high-conflict individual. I understand this from a deeply personal perspective and become invested in helping you survive all that is meant to destroy you.
No, absolutely not. I am not an attorney, I do not provide legal advice, and simply put, I stay out of your attorney's way! They are the legal professionals and will advise you on the specifics of your case. While I have a limited legal background, and I understand the verbiage, I am simply here to assist you in showing up as your best self, organized, peaceful and prepared for what is to come whether that be in your attorney's office, mediation, or in the courtroom.
I consult with both men and women who are contemplating divorce, in the midst of a divorce, attempting a way forward after divorce, or dealing with co-parenting issues. I do not see couples as I am not a therapist.
The answer is not a simple one... there is a lot of uncertainty that comes with the ending of this chapter... Can I make it? Financially? Emotionally? Where will I live? What about our friends? What about dating? Will the kids be traumatized? How will I co-parent? Eeek, it is SO much to think about.... I have good news though, I am also Certified in Divorce Recovery and can help you answer all of those questions and more! I can walk the path with you as you embark on your new journey, reminding you that every new page in your story is yours to write!
That is not for me to decide. Together, we discuss your story and your desired outcomes. We discuss your STBX and their desired outcome. Some divorces do require the legal expertise of an attorney. Clients who have coaches who work collaboratively with attorneys or other legal officials, tend to show up more confidently and have more successful outcomes.
