I'm Amy, a Certified Divorce Coach working with separating spouses who recognize the value of time and are frustrated by the lengthy and costly nature of protracted divorce proceedings.

Divorcing Well is a cho

ice you make to experience the process of divorce differently. It’s a choice to show up as the very best version of yourself, no matter what the day may bring.

Together, you and I will engage in a thought-provoking and creative process that will inspire you to optimize the outcome of your separation and divorce. I’ll be your thinking partner, sounding board and champion. I’ll help you focus on and achieve what it is that you want and need from the divorce transition on a practical, emotional and holistic level.

Or as my father used to say, “This too shall pass”.

I understand how hard it is to see where, exactly, your turn might be. Or how long you’ll need to travel this challenging road before you’ll even notice it. But trust me, your turn is coming. Sometimes, we just need someone to remind us that what we’re going through now is a passing phase. Nothing lasts forever – not even the hurt and pain of your separation or divorce.

Many of my clients come to me in a state of dysregulation. Unfortunately, this is the body and mind’s natural response to traumatic experiences such as separation or divorce. A substantive part of my practice is supporting my clients as they work to overcome the overwhelm and stress they’re feeling as they take the steps toward their new lives and identities.

Most people have developed quick and simple ways to help themselves when they start to feel overcome by stress; however, sometimes life can produce situations that feel so large and so overwhelming that even knowing what you should do, doesn’t always help.

If you happen to find yourself in this state of overwhelming stress, I would add to the list above a #7: Call your Divorce Coach. It has been some of my life’s greatest work to have the honour of walking alongside so many incredible people during their most challenging chapters in life.

What story do you tell yourself (and others) about why you’re separating or getting a divorce? Oftentimes, separating spouses want to tell others how their spouse has hurt them, what has become of them since they left, or the myriad ways in which they could’ve done things differently. Usually these stories are filled with pain, shame, and suffering and perhaps even an attempt to portray one party as the villain and one party as the victim.

It's very easy to get caught up in this spiral which might feel good in the moment, but it’s important to realize that your body and your mind are being subjected to that hurt and pain all over again with each re-telling. You deserve better. Your story can sabotage you if you’re not careful. It can take over your life. Future you deserves a chance at freedom from this messaging; future you deserves to have a shot at moving forward in the best possible light and energy; future you deserves to set and reach new and meaningful goals, outside of being told these hurtful stories over and over again.

If you feel like you may benefit from speaking to me about changing your Divorce Story, please reach out and connect. I’d be happy to help support you as you transition from a negative Divorce Story to a more positive, or at least more neutral one. You never know what a difference this single act could bring about for your present and future self.

Divorce and separation create shifts that touch nearly every aspect of your life. It’s natural that this type of event will trigger a transformation – and that the complete transformation will require time and significant adjustments. When we’re ready, and only once we’re ready, can the true work begin.

And during this wobbly time, when we’re just starting to gain our footing, it’s important to remember that not everything will fall into place in our timeline, nor will it all become perfectly clear all at once. For this reason, I encourage my clients to show themselves grace during this uncertain, but often beautiful, time. If you think you might benefit from some support during your transformation post-separation or divorce, feel free to reach out to see how I can help.

Alternative Dispute Resolution, or ADR for short, is a term that refers to several processes that can be used to resolve a conflict, dispute, or claim. These processes are alternatives to having a court decide the dispute and can have several advantages.

For example, many dispute resolution processes are less costly and faster than the traditional court process. Some processes can also provide parties with greater participation in reaching a solution, as well as more control over the outcome of the dispute. Some versions of ADR also provide the parties with greater privacy than court proceedings, which can be made available to the public. Finally, ADR processes can have more flexibility in terms of process and outcome than the traditional court hearing.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the divorce or separation process and could use some support, I’d be happy to help you consider all your options, procedural or otherwise.

Before I start coaching my clients, we typically set up a time for a 15 minute Discovery Call to determine if we’re the right fit for one another. Coaching is a relationship, like any other relationship, and both parties must feel that the connection exists, and will be beneficial, before proceeding.

In that first Discovery Call, we discuss many of the challenges that my clients are facing in their separation or divorce, and how I might be able to help. If, at the end of our chat, we both feel that the services I offer would help support the client, then we discuss how best to proceed with our coaching relationship.

If you’d like to determine if I might be the right Divorce Coach for you, feel free to reach out and set up a time to chat.

It seems patently unfair that the divorce process requires individuals to make some of the most important and most challenging decisions of their lives at a time when their entire focus should be on healing and self-care.

But here’s the good news: you don’t have to do this alone.

If you feel like you may benefit from the support of someone who can help you make the best, most informed decisions for your future-self, please reach out to schedule a free Discovery Call.

A favourite exercise of mine is to challenge my clients as follows:

Name three things you’ll take away from your marriage for which you are grateful.

Name something valuable that you’ve learned from your marriage.

Name three positive attributes of your former partner.

Marriage may start and end in mystery, but that savage and beautiful country lies in between. Rather than feeling regret, how might we move through this transition with gratitude, forgiveness, and grace?

In my Divorce Coaching practice, I often encourage breathwork and meditation as a form of self-care. Not only does it have an incredible calming effect on our nervous system, meditation has been shown to promote a better sense of clarity that continues throughout the rest of our day.

When we approach the challenges in our lives from a place of greater calm & clarity, we’re better able to make the types of decisions that will benefit, rather than hinder, our future selves.

This is perhaps one of the single biggest benefits I see when my clients are diligent about their self-care. When they feel rested and well supported they have the energy reserves to be diligent about thinking through each and every decision that comes their way, seeking out the appropriate experts and gaining the information they need to make the best choices they can in their circumstances.

And this is where I thrive: in support of my clients as they begin to plant the seeds necessary to create a bigger and brighter future for themselves and their children.
