What can a coach contribute to a collaborative divorce?
As you go through the difficult process of divorce, your Collaborative Divorce Coach can help you:
Clarify your priorities and concerns – In the midst of an often overwhelming and frustrating process
Deal with the intense emotions that typically accompany divorce – And keep them from getting in the way of reaching your goals
Avoid the relational and financial costs of an adversarial divorce process – While you work with a team of collaborative professionals
Stay focused on your goals – And avoid being stuck in the past
Develop more effective, efficient communication skills with your former partner – Instead of repeating the same old unproductive patterns
Receive resources and referrals for needed services and information – From knowledgeable professionals who care about your success
Learn problem-solving techniques – And receive support for thinking outside of the box
Plan for your life beyond divorce – And make positive changes
If you have children, collaborative divorce coaching can also help you:
- Maintain your vision for restructuring your family into a non-married family system
- Identify and strengthen your parenting skills
- Communicate appropriately with your child(ren) about your divorce
- Help your child(ren) cope with confusion and changes related to your divorce
- Work productively with your former partner for the benefit of your child(ren)
