Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With

In addition to providing high quality therapy and life coaching, I can also help with the following specific needs:

* Divorce Coach: As a Certified Family Court Mediator, I can help you understand how Family Court works and help you manage your expectations when working with attorneys and court outcomes that often don't seem fair. I will help you process the emotional turmoil of separation and divorce while reducing the intensity and conflict with your ex. I can help you parent better during divorce.

* Parent Coordination: I can help you understand what key concepts are necessary in a Parenting Plan. Work with you (and your ex) to develop and draft your Parenting Plan. Assist you and your ex-spouse in following this plan and make changes to this plan when it is no longer working. I act as a neutral liaison between you and your ex to help you learn how to communicate effectively to build a healthy Co-Parenting Relationship before, during, and after divorce. Also, helping you navigate how to have a healthier divorce for you and your children.

* Emotional Support Animal Evaluation: My office can provide a consultation & evaluation to determine if you qualify for an Emotional Support Animal. If you do, we'll provide you with a letter certifying this to provide to your landlord or whoever needs it.

* Licensure Supervision: I am a Qualified Supervisor for Mental Health Counseling interns in Florida.
