With over 20 years of experience working with individuals and families in relational transition, I bring deep insight into emotional escalation patterns, communication breakdown, and family system dynamics.
As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I understand the psychological impact divorce can have on parents and children. In this coaching capacity, I focus on equipping clients with practical tools to regulate emotions, communicate effectively, and make child-centered decisions during legal proceedings.
This service is coaching-based and does not include therapy, legal advice, mediation, court appearances, testimony, or custody evaluations.
Coaching is delivered virtually and organized around practical skill implementation between sessions. Clients receive clear guidance, structured exercises, and accountability designed to reduce emotional reactivity and improve communication during active legal proceedings.
Sessions focus on:
• Applying communication tools in real-time interactions
• Reducing escalation before it impacts legal progress
• Strengthening child-focused decision-making
• Building emotional steadiness during transition phases
Engagement is short-term and goal-oriented, designed to support stability while legal matters move forward.

Clients referred for divorce transition coaching receive focused support in:
• Regulating emotional reactivity during legal proceedings
• Communicating more effectively with co-parents
• Reducing unnecessary conflict and escalation
• Making child-centered decisions under pressure
• Responding strategically instead of reactively
• Maintaining stability during custody transitions
Coaching emphasizes practical application so clients can implement these skills immediately in real-world interactions.
This coaching service is appropriate for clients who:
• Are actively involved in divorce or custody proceedings
• Struggle with emotional reactivity that impacts communication
• Experience repeated escalation with a co-parent
• Need support maintaining child-focused priorities
• Feel overwhelmed navigating legal and relational transitions
• Are motivated to improve communication and reduce conflict
This service is not designed for clients requiring crisis intervention, court testimony, or therapeutic treatment.
