About ME

I’m a Certified Divorce Coach®, mediator, and creator of the Better Than Before Divorce™️ system. I work individuals who want to come out better on the other side of divorce, and family firms that want to support their clients' emotional needs during this overwhelming time.

FOR FAMILY LAW FIRMS

I partner with firms who recognize the importance of providing their clients with support through ALL aspects of a divorce. Better Than Before Divorce™️ improves client confidence, communication skills, clarifies goals and steps, reduces stress and acrimony, and creates CREDIBLE clients grateful for BOTH legal guidance AND access to essential emotional support.

Most family law firms recognize their clients would benefit from credible emotional support, but struggle to:

▶ Help clients find the best (most economical, appropriate, and trusted) way to navigate the emotional journey through divorce

▶ Balance the financial reality of a limited retainer with client requests for emotional guidance

▶ Manage expectations and educating clients about the legal process

With Better Than Before Divorce™️ you get to focus on handling a client’s legal needs and they get emotional support from a proven professional.

I created this program because divorce clients need emotional support – from the RIGHT team member! Even though you want to focus on the business of law, NOT the emotional rollercoaster, it’s not always possible when a client is emotionally exhausted and overwhelmed. Everybody wins when clients can use their attorney for the business of divorce AND have access to a personalized program that walks them through creating boundaries and a healthy support system, communicating clearly and focusing on long-term, healthy coparenting.

I’ve helped numerous clients navigate the emotions of divorce using this proprietary process. Here’s what some of them they say in their own words:

▶ (Andra) “helps me break down the challenges before me into manageable pieces that make it possible to move forward. Since meeting her I feel clearer and more focused than I have in a long, long time and I can see an exciting path forward.”

▶ Andra helped me realize the importance of building on my own strength to shape my future, and that I had the courage to make it happen.”

▶ Andra had come highly recommended as a divorce coach. She has been paramount to my process, helping me rebuild my communication toolbox, adding clarity to my thoughts and creating a path forward.
