Therapy is designed to heal psychological wounds and may explore past trauma, mental health, or long-standing patterns. Divorce coaching is future-focused. It’s about helping you take action, make decisions, calm your nervous system, and move forward during one of the most overwhelming transitions of your life.

I bring a background in both therapy (MSW) and coaching, so my approach is uniquely supportive of your emotional and practical needs. If I believe therapy is more appropriate for you at any point, I’ll always let you know.

No. I do not give legal advice. But I do help you understand the emotional, practical, and interpersonal aspects of working with your legal team. I help you: - Learn how to choose a divorce attorney who’s aligned with your values - Communicate more clearly with your lawyer or mediator - Prepare for meetings and reduce overwhelm - Regulate your emotions so you can advocate for yourself.

As a former attorney, I understand the legal system and can help you navigate it without drowning in fear or confusion.

Yes. This is an area I specialize in.

Divorcing someone with narcissistic, emotionally abusive, or manipulative traits can be deeply disorienting. You may feel gaslit, afraid, ashamed, or stuck in patterns of guilt and obligation.

Together, we work on:

• Emotional disentanglement from the trauma bond

• Rebuilding self-trust and boundaries

• Communication strategies for co-parenting or managing conflict

• Nervous system regulation so you can think clearly and sleep again

Yes. We’ll work together to: - Create co-parenting plans that prioritize your children and your sanity - Set boundaries with a difficult or non-cooperative ex - Reduce stress before drop-offs, exchanges, or school meetings - Heal the guilt and grief that often come with co-parenting

That depends on where you are in your process. Some clients start with one session to get clarity on their next steps. Others work with me weekly or monthly throughout their divorce and into the rebuilding phase.

If you're looking for a more structured path, the A.R.I.S.E.™ Divorce Support System offers a full framework with clear milestones and deep support.

I offer: - 50- and 90-minute individual sessions - 3-hour deep-dive intensives - Ongoing support packages - Divorce coaching as part of the A.R.I.S.E.™ program - Group coaching for those who want peer support

Yes. Many women come to me before they’ve made a final decision. Coaching can help you: - Get clear on what you want - Understand your options - Prepare emotionally and logistically - Create a safety plan if needed - Avoid mistakes that can cost you later.

Whether you’re considering divorce, in the thick of it, or putting yourself back together afterward—this work can support you.

All sessions are held virtually via Zoom unless otherwise arranged. You can join from anywhere in the U.S. or abroad. I also see clients in person in St. Petersburg, FL.

That’s okay. Many of my clients felt the same way before their first call. Divorce is one of the hardest transitions you can go through. You don’t need to be “ready.” You just need to be willing. I’ll meet you where you are—with no shame and no pressure.

Absolutely. Whether you're exploring separation, recovering from a breakup, or facing another life crossroads, we can explore what’s happening, what you need, and your next steps together. I even offer Discernment Counseling for couples seeking help deciding in my therapy practice. You can read more about that service on my therapy site LooMLifeTherapy.com.
