Helping women navigate divorce with the insight that only 31 years inside the justice system can provide.

Divorce is one of the biggest transitions of your life. After 31 years as a Crown Attorney and family lawyer, I've seen what helps women move through divorce with confidence—and what holds them back. Today, I combine decades of legal experience with coaching and wellness to help women make better decisions, reduce overwhelm, and build a stronger future.

Because divorce isn't just about ending a marriage. It's about protecting your future.

Why Work With Me?

Most divorce coaches have experienced divorce.

I've spent more than three decades helping women through it professionally.

That difference matters.

Over 31 years I have:

  • Served as a Crown Attorney, including co-leading a specialized domestic violence prosecution team.
  • Practised family law for 15 years.
  • Worked with hundreds of women navigating separation, coercive control, parenting disputes, financial uncertainty, and high-conflict relationships.
  • Taught future legal professionals as a college professor.

I've watched women make decisions they later regretted—and I've watched others emerge stronger than they ever imagined. That experience allows me to help you approach divorce with perspective, preparation, and confidence

What Makes My Coaching Different

Most coaching focuses on emotional support.

Most lawyers focus on legal issues.

I help you bridge the gap.

Working together, you’ll learn how to:

  • prepare for meetings with your lawyer
  • organize your thoughts before making major decisions
  • understand the bigger picture instead of reacting emotionally
  • communicate more effectively during conflict
  • manage stress and overwhelm
  • rebuild your confidence and identity
  • develop habits that support your physical and emotional wellbeing

This isn’t legal advice.

 

It’s strategic, informed coaching from someone who understands the legal system—and understands women.

My Philosophy

I've learned something after 31 years.

The women who do best aren’t necessarily the ones with the strongest legal cases.

 

They’re the women who make thoughtful decisions, stay grounded under pressure, protect their wellbeing, and continue moving forward despite uncertainty.

 

That’s the woman I want to help you become.
