I've been a divorce professional for more decades than I care to admit.
... and I'll be the first to tell you that modern thinking around divorce - and the divorce system - is out of date with the realities and needs of smart, successful people like you.
Divorce is not one-size-fits-all.
There is so much to divorce that goes beyond the courtroom. Your emotions. Your children. Your finances. Your future relationships. Your sense of self. Your vision for what comes next.
If we leave all possible outcomes to the courtroom, we are leaving so much of your power to chance.
There has to be more.
So I set out to revolutionize how divorce is understood and navigated. I became the person my clients wished they had before they made their first move - someone who could help them Choose Their Divorce instead of letting it happen to them.
Through clarity, options, and personal strategy, I help you reclaim your power…and your future.

WHAT I DO
I'm a divorce coach, Decision Coach, legal consultant, MEDIATOR, author, speaker, and a recovering divorce attorney.
What does all of that mean?
It means I empower people who are thinking about or facing divorce with the clarity, confidence, and strategic support they need to choose a path that protects their peace, their future, and their dignity.
I help you understand that you have options - different styles of divorce for different situations. I help you Choose Your Divorce by showing you that even if you end up in court, you still have a choice about how this unfolds.
Divorce is a relationship shift, not a life collapse.
I work with you to understand your marriage and divorce options so you can make better choices and be better prepared for what lies ahead. I educate and empower you to manage your transition with strategy instead of just surviving the chaos.
Whether you're trying to decide if divorce is right for you, or you're already in the process and need strategic guidance, I help you Choose Your Divorce and become the CEO of your own situation instead of just another victim of the system.
Why leave a lucrative law practice to be ... a divorce coach?!
Quite simply, I got fed up!
The divorce system as it currently exists doesn't work the way people expect. Divorce lawyers don't do what people think they're going to do. Divorce courst don't operate as effectively or efficiently as people assume they will. As a result, smart, capable people make uninformed decisions that lead to unintended results. They make mistakes they could have avoided. Without meaning to, they do things that hurt themselves and their kids.
I don't think that's right.
So I set out to revolutionize the way divorce is done. To do that, I needed to be MORE than just another divorce lawyer.
Believe it or not, "the law" is about 10% of most divorces. The other 90% involves your emotions, your children, your finances, your future happiness.
As a divorce coach and consultant, I help you with the other 90%.
You can't stop the train, but you can choose the track.
My Approach
I'm not here to rescue you or tell you what to do. I'm your lighthouse in the storm - providing steady guidance so you can navigate this transition with confidence.
I haven't been through a divorce myself, but I've done something equally challenging - I've stayed married for over a decade and a half with intentionality and love. That lived wisdom, paired with legal expertise, emotional intelligence, and mediation skill, makes me a unique and trusted guide no matter what you choose to do with your marriage.
I also don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. I've helped people end their marriages in every way you can do that. I know what ALL of your options are. My job is to help you see those options clearly so you can choose the approach that aligns with your values, your circumstances, and your goals.
Don't just survive divorce. Redesign your life.
Ready to Choose Your Divorce?
If you're interested in working with me so that you can become the CEO of your own divorce (instead of just another divorce statistic), let's talk.
P.S. If you're looking for a gladiator, a shark, or someone who can teach you dirty tricks to bring your spouse to their knees, I'm not your person. That's not what I do. I help people navigate divorce with dignity, strategy, and respect - for themselves, their children, and yes, even their soon-to-be ex-spouse.
