From Stressed to Strength: Your Path to an Empowered Divorce
I believe that divorce, while challenging, holds the potential to be a transformative experience, one that reshapes your life towards greater fulfilment and independence.
My mission is to guide you through this pivotal transition with compassion, understanding, and practical tools. Whether you're seeking clarity on legal options, strategies for positive co-parenting, or ways to navigate your emotions and finances with confidence, I’m here to empower you. Let's embark on this journey together, transforming a time of change into a stepping stone for personal growth and a brighter future.
Being here means you are on the right path. When you’re at that stage of overwhelm and worried about your future, then what you need is reassurance, information and advice and strategies to get through this. And that’s exactly what I can do for you! Many rush to see a solicitor and/or counsellors but while both can be useful and sometimes necessary, there is a better way. A divorce coach bridges what neither solicitor or counsellor can do on their own. Working with me in the first instance, and alongside legal professionals later, will empower you with the strategies and necessary information to make confident, timely and much less costly decisions. Identifying the right time to work with the right professionals will save you heartache, stress and your bank balance! Plus I can advise you on how to support your children, negotiate with confidence and less conflict and support your emotional needs along the way.
That’s where we’re going, but right now you feel like this…..
You’re a busy professional who is used to juggling all the plates of work, the kids and life in general but divorce seems to have completely de-railed you. As a high-achiever, you're accustomed to overcoming challenges with ease. However, divorce can shake even the strongest foundations. I was like that too. My son was 4 and I was asked to step-up to the role of headteacher in my school. The timing couldn’t have been worse. But I got through it and you can too.
Being told by your ex-partner that they no longer love you and want a divorce can be an incredibly devastating and disorienting experience. You may feel a sense of betrayal, rejection, and abandonment, wondering how something that once felt so solid and promising could unravel so swiftly. It's a painful process of mourning not only the loss of the relationship but also the shattered dreams and hopes for the future that you once shared. If it wasn’t your decision, you can feel like everything is out of your control.
You probably have a whole host of questions you want to be answered:
How do I create coping mechanisms without feeling overwhelmed?
How will our assets and finances be divided without causing stress and friction?
How can I best protect my child from feeling rejected or abandoned?
What happens to the marital home and how can I leave without feeling like I’m losing everything?
How can I navigate this journey with grace, dignity and resilience?
How can I be more efficient with legal fees?
How can I talk confidently to friends, colleagues and family about the separation without feeling nervous and stressed?
Working with me, using my personalised STEP Programme, will provide the answers to these questions and clarity through the complexities of divorce, guiding you toward not just surviving but thriving. You'll gain personalised strategies for managing emotions, navigating legal waters, securing your financial future, and fostering positive co-parenting relationships. I will help you to have a smoother divorce which costs less in the long run, reduce your stress levels so that you can sleep better, not damage your children in the process, and feel more positive about your future. Together, we'll transform this challenging period into an opportunity for personal growth, empowerment, and a happy new beginning with a sense of peace.

Why have a coach to support you through a divorce?

Expertise
Friends can be a great source of support but they don’t have the training, tools and techniques that can really make the difference between a long and shorter recovery. I can provide a safe space without judgement and a tailored approach can make all the difference.

Experience
I have been through a divorce myself so I know how hard it can be. Nobody really understands unless they have been through it themselves and even then, every divorce is different. I am also living proof of what a positive life after divorce can look like.

“Cath helped me greatly during a life changing transition and I really looked forward to my appointment with her. She helped me clarify a lot which direction I wanted to go. It also helped me to shed light on some relationships I have, to be clearer on where I stand in the dynamics. I would definitely recommend her as a coach! “
