My ideal clients are engaged and willing to take the high road to achieve their long-term goals—those who are seeking concrete guidance because they are overwhelmed by family tensions or the concept and logistics of the divorce process.

They are looking for a strong, empathetic, professional partner to act as their thought coach through a highly stressful and confusing time.
