About Stepping Stone Divorce Coaching
Divorce can often feel overwhelming, lonely, and deeply confusing. In the midst of such significant life changes, it is easy to lose your footing. This space is dedicated to providing you with steady, non-judgmental support, offering a calm environment where you can find the clarity needed to navigate this transition with strength.
Personalized Experience & Professional Insight
As a retired attorney and certified divorce coach who has personally experienced divorce, I bring a unique perspective to our sessions. I understand both the analytical complexities of the process and the emotional weight it carries. My background allows me to support you not just as a professional, but as someone who truly understands the journey you are on.
A Grounded Coaching Approach
Through one-on-one sessions, we combine practical guidance with deep emotional support. Whether we are discussing financial clarity, legal-process awareness, or effective communication strategies, the goal is always to help you feel more grounded. By addressing both the logistical hurdles and your internal well-being, you can regain a sense of control over your future.

Your divorce journey
The path through divorce is rarely a straight line, but you don’t have to walk it alone. I provide a calm, steady hand to guide you through the emotional, practical, and financial complexities, helping you move from a place of uncertainty to one of clarity and strength.
We begin by addressing the immediate emotional hurdles—how to communicate effectively with your spouse, share the news with family, and protect your children’s well-being. My goal is to help you find healthier ways to navigate these conversations so you can make decisions from a place of grounded confidence rather than stress.
At times, a divorce can become tense or even adversarial. Please know that your emotional and physical safety remains my highest priority. Whenever necessary, I will thoughtfully refer you to specialized health practitioners and trusted professionals to ensure your comprehensive well-being is protected.
On the practical and financial front, with my business experience, I help you untangle the intricate details of your daily life—from housing and daily logistics to corporate and accounting issues. When the journey requires specialist insight, I connect you with a trusted network of forensic accountants, real estate experts, and appraisers, ensuring you are fully prepared to work effectively with your legal counsel.
Together, we will lay the stepping stones for a future that feels secure, balanced, and entirely your own.
