What I do best

Divorce is a complex process that can be emotionally overwhelming. As your coach, my mission is to provide you with a steady and trustworthy presence during this time of change. I believe in fostering an environment of trust and respect, where you can openly share your concerns, fears, and aspirations.

Throughout our coaching journey, we'll uncover your strengths and work on strategies to help you navigate challenges with resilience. Whether it's managing stress, co-parenting effectively, understanding legal aspects, or envisioning a fulfilling post-divorce life, I'm here to offer guidance and support at every step:

  • Throughout my career, I’ve developed a deep passion for helping individuals navigate the challenges that life presents, particularly during challenging life transitions such as divorce. My background as a crisis response worker and mental health intensive case manager has equipped me with the skills and knowledge necessary to provide valuable support during difficult times.

  • My commitment to person-centered and ethical practices ensures that you receive the individualized care and attention you deserve. I believe in the power of open communication, active listening, and collaborative goal-setting to help you overcome obstacles and work towards a brighter future.

  • As a multilingual professional fluent in English, Romanian, and intermediate in French, and Spanish, I am well-equipped to serve a diverse clientele. My proficiency in various languages allows me to connect with clients on a deeper level, ensuring that language barriers are never an obstacle to getting the support you need.

  • My educational background includes a CDC Certified Divorce Coach Program, two B.A. one in Psychology and one in Communication and Public Relations, as well as a post-graduate program in Human Resource Management. I continuously expand my knowledge through ongoing training and certifications, including Solution-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, among others.

  • Whether you’re facing the challenges of divorce, seeking support during difficult life changes, or looking to improve your mental well-being, I am here to stand by your side. Together, we can navigate these transitions and work towards a brighter, more fulfilling future. Thank you for considering me as your divorce coach. I look forward to supporting you on your journey to healing and personal growth.

Disclaimer: It’s important to remember that while I provide emotional support, I’m not a therapist and won’t provide deep psychological counselling. Additionally, I’m not a lawyer and cannot offer legal advice. Instead, my role as a divorce coach complements these services by offering practical guidance, emotional support, and assistance in navigating the personal and practical facets of divorce.
