What CLIENTS can expect
I work with you to help put a strategy in place to achieve the best possible outcome for you and your children. There are 5 key elements of every high conflict divorce. I work to connect the dots so that they all work together: 1) Attorney selection and communication, 2) Your emotional well-being, 3) Navigating the court system, 4) Communicating with a high conflict co-parent. 5) The children's well being.
Here are some other ways that divorce coaching can support you:
- Intake session to understand current dynamics, legal posture, and parenting priorities. - Referral network for attorneys, clinical and forensic psychologists, mediators, therapists, support groups, other experts familiar with narcissistic personalities.
- Conflict Management Coaching: Tools and strategies for emotional regulation and de-escalation with a high-conflict co-parent.
- Communication Skills: Guidance on neutral, legally appropriate co-parenting communication (texts, email, verbal).
- Parenting & Custody Support: Help understanding custody processes and parenting plans; preparation for mediation and hearings.
- Co-Parenting Strategies: Training in parenting methods and boundary setting.
- Child-Centered Coaching: Focus on minimizing emotional harm to children; support in identifying and responding to signs of distress.
