DIVORCE COACHING
Divorce gets easier to navigate when you can see what actually matters.
Divorce coaching gives you a place to think through the decisions, conversations, conflict, parenting concerns, and uncertainty that arise along the way—so you can respond more intentionally instead of simply reacting to whatever happens next.

A QUICK INTRODUCTION
What does a divorce coach actually do?
Divorce involves much more than legal questions. In this short video, I’ll share a bit about how coaching can help, the types of challenges we work through, and what you can expect.

CLARITY BEYOND THE LEGAL PROCESS
Not every divorce problem is a legal problem.
An attorney may be essential when you need legal advice. But many of the moments that determine how your divorce actually unfolds happen outside of a courtroom.
These are the kinds of questions we can work through together →
Is divorce the right decision?
How do we tell our kids?
Should I move out? What about nesting?
Should I hire an attorney?
What do I need to do to prepare for mediation?
How do I feel less overwhelmed?
My spouse wants a divorce—what should I do?
How do we get through this without spending a fortune?
HOW DIVORCE COACHING HELPS YOU
Practical support for the areas that matter most.
A good path forward requires decisions in several areas of your life—and they all affect one another.
Clarity & Decisions
Sort through competing priorities, understand your options, and decide what actually requires your attention now.
Communication & Conflict
Prepare for difficult conversations, respond more thoughtfully under pressure, and avoid escalating conflict unnecessarily.
Children & Relationships
Think through parenting decisions, telling the children, changing family dynamics, boundaries, and how to protect the relationships that matter.
Process & Professional Guidance
Understand the divorce process, prepare for meetings, ask better questions, and determine when an attorney, financial professional, mediator, or other expert would be useful.

MY APPROACH
I won’t tell you how to live your life.
My job is not to make decisions for you.
I’ll ask questions, point out patterns, offer perspective, challenge assumptions when useful, and share what I’ve learned working with other divorce professionals and individuals.
You remain responsible for deciding what matters to you and how you want to move forward.
Why ongoing coaching?
The more I understand your history, relationships, priorities, and the decisions you've already made, the less time we spend getting me up to speed—and the more useful our conversations become.
-
Usually, whatever is happening in your life right now. That might be a difficult conversation with your spouse, uncertainty about what is reasonable, questions about the children, preparing for mediation, deciding whether to hire an attorney, or figuring out how to respond when something unexpected happens. The goal is to use the time on the issues that are actually affecting your next decision.
-
Divorce unfolds over time. New information comes in, conversations happen, professionals get involved, and priorities can change. As I get to know your history, relationships, concerns, and the decisions you’ve already made, you don’t have to keep starting from the beginning. We can spend more of our time focused on what is happening now and how you want to respond.
-
The coaching package includes four 60-minute sessions each month, and unused sessions do not roll over. It works best for people who want consistent support as their situation evolves rather than occasional, one-off advice. The arrangement is month-to-month, so you can stop when ongoing coaching is no longer useful.

TAKE THE FIRST STEP
You don’t need to navigate divorce alone.
You may only need one conversation. Or you may benefit from having someone alongside you as the situation changes. Either way, the first step is the same: let's understand where you are and what would actually be useful.
