Who is my coaching for?

I work with high-achievers who lead in the boardroom but feel hijacked at home.

High-Performers Seeking Cognitive Freedom

You manage teams and budgets with ease, but a single notification from your ex-partner can hijack your brain for the rest of the day.

Protectors Seeking Emotional Legacy

You care deeply about your children and you want to respond with more steadiness, even when the situation is difficult.

Strategists Seeking Systemic Efficiency

You are tired of "over-processing" every interaction, drafting two-line emails for hours and performing emotional post-mortems after every handover.

Co-Parenting Coach for Executives and High-Performance Professionals

Why this work matters to me

I did not come to this work from theory alone.

For more than ten years, I have worked closely with families at difficult turning points: separation, conflict, new routines, broken trust, and the long process of learning how to speak to each other differently.

I have seen how much of co-parenting happens in small moments.A message that arrives at the wrong time.A handover that starts tense before anyone says a word.A decision about school, holidays, or health that suddenly becomes bigger than the decision itself.

Many of my clients are highly capable in the rest of their lives. They lead teams, run businesses, make decisions, and hold things together for everyone else. But conflict with a former partner can reach a place that ordinary professional skills do not fully prepare you for.

That is why I bring together three parts of my background.

→ I bring family experience — years of working with the emotional reality behind separation and co-parenting.

→ I bring communication training — including non-violent communication and co-parenting mediation, where the focus is not on “winning” the exchange, but on making it clearer, safer, and less reactive.

→ And I bring more than 500 hours of coaching work with people who carry responsibility in demanding lives.

My role is not to judge your story, tell you what to do, or give legal advice. My role is to help you slow the pattern down, see your choices more clearly, and build a way of communicating that you can actually use in real life — especially when the situation is tense.

This work is practical.It is calm.And it is built around one simple idea: you may not be able to control the whole dynamic, but you can work on how you meet it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Good questions before we begin

Coaching can support you in noticing your reactions, pausing before responding, and choosing a next step that feels more intentional. We may work on preparation before difficult exchanges, simple response structures, and ways to reflect after stressful interactions. Coaching is not therapy. If your situation involves trauma, abuse, safety concerns, or a mental health crisis, coaching should not be the only support.

No. I do not provide legal advice, and I do not replace a family lawyer. Coaching can help you think through your communication, prepare for conversations, and make choices more clearly within the legal advice you have received from a qualified professional.

Every situation is different. Some clients may notice early changes in how they pause, prepare, or write messages. For others, it takes more time and practice. I do not promise a specific result. What we can do is track practical shifts, such as shorter replies, clearer boundaries, fewer reactive messages, or more intentional choices.

They do not need to take part in coaching for the work to be useful. We focus on your side of the interaction: what you answer, when you pause, what boundaries you set, and how you want to show up. This may influence the dynamic, but it does not guarantee how the other person will respond.

It depends on what “high-conflict” means in your situation. Coaching can be useful when the focus is communication, boundaries, preparation, and emotional steadiness. If there are threats, abuse, child safety concerns, legal escalation, or serious mental health concerns, it is important to involve the right legal, therapeutic, or crisis professionals. In those cases, coaching may be supportive, but it should not be the only form of help.
