Divorce is one of life’s most complex transitions—legally, emotionally, financially, and logistically. Most professionals can only support you through one aspect of that journey. But at Optimal Divorce Solutions, I bring all the pieces together.
As a Certified Divorce Coach, Certified Divorce Mediator, Certified Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA®), Certified Divorce Real Estate Expert (CDRE), and Licensed Real Estate Broker in New Hampshire and Maine, I offer a comprehensive, strategic, and empathetic approach to guide you every step of the way.
This isn’t just about credentials. It’s about results.
The Real Problem: Fragmented Divorce Help
Many divorcing individuals find themselves bouncing between professionals who never communicate with one another:
A coach for emotional clarity.
A mediator for settlement discussions.
A financial advisor or CPA for money matters.
A real estate agent to sell the marital home.
Each may be excellent at what they do—but none of them understand your entire picture.
That’s why so many people feel confused, unsupported, or even misled during divorce.
At Optimal Divorce Solutions, I streamline your journey by integrating everything in one place. Here’s how each credential plays a role.
Certified Divorce Coach: Clarity and Confidence in Chaos
Divorce is an emotional rollercoaster. Even high-functioning professionals can feel stuck, second-guess themselves, or shut down under pressure.
As a Certified Divorce Coach, I help you:
Clarify your priorities and desired outcomes.
Identify blind spots in your decision-making.
Communicate more effectively with your spouse, legal team, and mediator.
Prepare emotionally and practically for negotiation sessions.
This isn’t therapy. It’s forward-focused, action-oriented support tailored to your divorce goals.

Certified Divorce Mediator: Constructive, Cost-Effective Resolution
Divorce doesn’t have to mean courtroom battles and five-figure legal bills. Through structured mediation, many couples can:
Avoid litigation.
Reduce emotional stress.
Retain control over their outcome.
As your mediator, I serve as a neutral facilitator to help both parties work toward fair, informed agreements. My coaching background helps keep discussions focused, while my financial expertise ensures we don’t miss critical money matters.
