I began my career as a mediator with the Los Angeles Superior Court Mediation Services in the early 1980s. I have been divorce coaching for over 27 years. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist as well as a Clinical Forensic Counselor. I am currently in the middle of my studies to become a Doctorate of Forensic Psychology. I am the President of a three time award-winning nonprofit organization for parents. I am a practicing member of several collaborative groups in Orange, San Bernardino and Riverside Counties. I am very passionate about encouraging parents to stay out of the traditional adversarial system. As a licensed therapist, trained mediator, and experienced divorce coach, I will work with you to separate the emotional and behavioral issues from the legal issues. I understand the frustrations, fears, and other emotions associated with the divorce process. You will not be alone. I will be there to assist you in your transition, giving you tools and information to help you make intelligent decisions regarding the reorganization of your family. Informed and intelligent decisions provide the foundation for amicable and peaceful resolutions that are paramount to safeguard the emotional well-being of all family members. It would be my privilege to assist you during the reorganization of your family.
