Thoughtful, grounded coaching for professionals, parents, and individuals navigating change — in Chicago and online.

Change is inevitable — how you move through it makes all the difference.

Divorce, shifts in parenting or co-parenting, and professional transitions can disrupt what once felt stable, leaving you uncertain about next steps and weighed down by decisions.

I am known as the Champion of Change, supporting individuals, parents, and professionals as they navigate life transitions such as divorce and co-parenting with clarity and intention — helping change unfold positively, not reactively.

Commonly Asked Questions

What is the Difference Between Coaching and Counseling?

Coaching and counseling are both forms of support and guidance, but they have distinct differences in terms of their focus, goals, and methodologies:

  • Coaching: Coaching primarily focuses on helping individuals achieve specific personal or professional goals, develop skills, and enhance performance. Coaches often work with clients to identify their objectives, create action plans, and provide ongoing support and accountability to reach those goals. Coaching is forward-looking and typically assumes that the client is mentally healthy.
  • Counseling: Counseling is primarily focused on addressing emotional, psychological, or mental health issues. It aims to help individuals understand and manage their emotions, resolve past traumas, and improve their overall mental well-being. Counseling tends to deal with issues from the past that may be affecting the present.
What is the Typical Length of a Coaching Engagement?
The typical length of a coaching engagement can vary widely depending on the specific goals and needs of the client, the coaching context, and the agreement between the coach and the client. However, coaching engagements often fall into a range of several weeks to several months.

The exact duration of a coaching engagement is determined through discussions between the coach and the client when setting up the coaching agreement. Additionally, some coaching relationships are ongoing, with periodic check-ins over an extended period, especially in professional and leadership coaching.

It’s important to note that coaching can be flexible, and the duration can be adjusted to meet the changing needs and progress of the client. The ultimate goal is to help the client achieve their desired outcomes and develop the skills and mindset to sustain their progress independently.

What is the Cost for Coaching with You?
My pricing is customized based on your situation. Please contact me directly to discuss your needs and goals.
What Can I Expect from the Coaching Experience?

I will provide you with honest and direct feedback, helping you to see your strengths and weaknesses, and identifying areas for growth. I will help hold you accountable to your goals and action plan, and help you stay focused and motivated as you work towards your objectives.

Do You Work with Individuals and Teams for Professional Coaching?
Absolutely. I can work with either an individual within an organization or each of your employees separately. I can also work with just your leadership team to create positive change or create a custom team building experience for your business.
Do You Work with Individuals and Couples for Coaching?
I can work with either individuals or couples for coaching-however, this works best for divorce coaching and not coaching for personal success which is a personal and private process.
What is a Collaborative Divorce Coach?

A Collaborative Divorce Coach is a divorce professional with a background in mental health. As your Collaborative Divorce Coach, I will be part of your Collaborative Divorce team to help you and your spouse recognize, negotiate and communicate your emotional concerns during the divorce process. I will help guide you through through the emotional bottlenecks that often slow down progress during a divorce.

While your coach may be a therapist, s/he will not act as a therapist for either you or your spouse during your divorce. Coaching is very different from therapy.

Why Should I/We Use a Divorce Coach?
Depending upon your needs, you and your spouse may use one neutral divorce coach or, you and your spouse may each have your own coach.

As your Divorce Coach, I will help you and your spouse deal with your emotions during the divorce process so that those emotions don’t hijack your divorce. I will help you and your spouse express and represent your goals, concerns, and feelings as you craft your financial and parenting agreements.

I can also help you avoid getting stuck in inflexible positions by helping you identify what you really need from their divorce agreements. I will redirect you and your spouse from focusing on blame to focusing on solutions.
