I am honored when a family member asks me to participate as a divorce coach or child specialist. Though divorce is almost always a difficult transition, through collaboration and shared goals for the future it can lead to a new beginning for everyone.
When I first began working with divorcing couples in 1991 there was no such thing as collaborative divorce. Now individuals can choose to participate in a process that preserves the family’s values, with a focus on the future and not the past.

| General Comments |
| If you choose collaborative divorce you and your spouse will be part of a team of experts. The team has legal, psychological and financial expertise to help you make decisions and resolve conflicts with a focus on your values and a plan for the future. It is a way of divorcing that honors everyone’s needs, avoids court battles and ends your marriage with dignity. |
