Collaborative Divorce
A modern approach to divorce putting the family in charge.
Traditional divorce pits a couple, that once cared deeply for one another, in opposition, fighting for personal gains which often creates lasting turmoil. Collaborative Divorce has the potential to establish a new family dynamic that can have a different type of lasting impact - a positive impact the divorcing couple can be proud of and that their children will feel for years to come.
Collaborative Divorce is the practice of working together, each party with their own attorney, the support of a financial neutral coach and Divorce Coach to mediate a mutually acceptable divorce resolution. The key element to collaborative divorce is that both parties agree to settle their dissolution of marriage outside of court.

Collaborative Divorce Coach
My role as a Collaborative Divorce Coach is different than my role as a therapist (although a counseling degree is required). As a Divorce Coach I assist both parties in identifying their common goals within the divorce process and assist the couple in defining what they would like their family to look like, moving forward. As a therapist specializing in parenting dynamics, childhood development and life-long development of emotion-regulation skills, serving in this role is a natural extension of my therapeutic work given the immense potential for lasting change within the family. Our children typically look to us first for an example of how to behave, why not utilize the opportunity to show them what collaboration can look like?
Fees
Collaborative Divorce Coaching is not therapy and therefore can not be billed through insurance. All services are billed through a credit card on file or through a retainer. Each professional on the Collaborative Divorce team will bill for their respective services, individually.
