Co-Parenting
Are Your Children Your Top Priority?
Co-parenting coaching can help you learn how to communicate more effectively, set individual and joint boundaries, create a new sense of security and stability, and work to establish a post-divorce family that is not characterized by conflict. Divorce is hard on everyone, but it is especially hard on children, regardless of their age. Children of divorced parents often get caught in the drama of adult conflict and triangulation, while their emotional needs may be put on the “back burner”. This can result in trauma, behavioral problems, poor performance in school, eating disorders, drug abuse, and more. Co-parenting coaching is designed to look forward rather than dwelling on events of the past or blaming either party for the failed marriage. The goal is to help both parties peacefully co-exist in a way where they can address issues concerning their children without having to spend endless time, money, and negative energies on unnecessary battles and repeated trips back to court. Co-parenting coaching will help you develop the skills and tools to make sure that your children feel loved, heard, and cared for during this difficult time.

Collaborative Divorce
Do you want a less expensive divorce where YOU control the outcome?
Collaborative divorce is a process where both spouses and their collaboratively trained attorneys agree to resolve all issues outside of the courtroom. This process encourages open communication, mutual respect, and problem-solving, focusing on finding solutions that are in the best interests of both parties. Collaborative divorce is a private process. Everything that is discussed during the collaborative meetings is confidential, unlike court proceedings, which are public. If your goal is to divorce as amicably as possible with your children’s best interests at the focus, I recommend Collaborative Divorce. Collaborative Divorce is more efficient, more affordable, more comfortable, and more equitable than traditional litigation. We will meet in four-way, face-to-face meetings with your respective collaborative attorneys. You will discuss and attempt to agree upon the terms of your divorce agreement. Parties commit to sharing information freely and openly instead of using the expensive, and sometimes lengthy, discovery process. This process encourages communication, negotiation, and equitable settlement. It reduces both costs and conflict while fostering healthy interactions between the couple that are hopefully carried forward after the divorce is final. Once spouses reach an agreement on settlement terms, the spouses and their attorneys draw up a contract and bring it before a family court judge who finalizes the divorce in an uncontested procedure.
Divorce Mediation
Do You Need a Quick, Cost Effective Divorce?
Divorce mediation is a process where a neutral third party, helps couples negotiate and resolve issues arising from their separation. Unlike traditional litigation, mediation focuses on mutual agreement and collaboration, promoting better communication and reducing conflict.
As your mediator I guide you through a process of constructive dialogue and mutual problem-solving. I do not make decisions. I helps you both to express your positions and listen to each other's disputes while searching for a solution that addresses the needs of all and works towards a fair, workable settlement. You are in control of your future and are the decision makers. When an agreement has been reached on all required areas you will have an attorney review it and create your Marital Settlement Agreement which will be submitted in Court and will be a legally binding document.
*Mediation may not be ideal in cases involving domestic violence, power imbalances, or unwillingness to compromise.
Parenting Coordination
Are you constantly fighting with your ex?
As a Parenting Coordinator I am a trained neutral mental health professional who is court appointed to help parents navigate high-conflict co-parenting situations. Parenting Coordination is a solution-oriented process. I support parents in making decisions that are in the best interest of their children. I help parents work together rather than fighting each other and spending time and money in court. I provide guidance on parenting plans, help resolve disagreements about parenting issues, assist with implementing their parenting plans and facilitate respectful communication strategies.
Pre-Marital Coaching
Plan your marriage not just a wedding
Premarital coaching is important to the health and longevity of your relationship. No one sets outs to get divorced. Yet high divorce rates, unhealthy marriages, and, sadly, domestic abuse cases spotlight the need for premarital coaching. Coaching encourages you and your partner to decide important aspects of the relationship before they become an issue.
