Divorce Coaching is recognized by the American Bar Association as one of the dispute resolution processes and is designed to support men and women experiencing all stages of divorce. Each phase, whether during, pre, or post-divorce is unique. Myra partners with her clients to explore possibilities and strategize in order to define and create the life they ultimately want to live.
A client's emotional well being and ability to problem solve throughout the divorce process are crucial in determining the outcome of the divorce itself. If a spouse is suffering emotionally, as the case often is during a divorce, and therefore struggling to make informed and appropriate decisions for themselves and for their families, an attorney's role may be compromised.
Those who experience divorce are typically panicked, may feel threatened, and face a great deal of uncertainty. As a result, a person’s thinking may become clouded which in turn subjects individuals to the major pitfalls that so often accompany divorce.
A client who has engaged a divorce coach has gained an advocate. The client can confidently move forward knowing they are armed to avoid the pitfalls while they are being supported to function at their highest capacity. When individuals choose to work with a divorce coach, they are coached to leave their instinctive fight or flight responses at the doorstep and step into the creative problem solving zone. In this arena, clients can expect to achieve a far more harmonious, less costly, and easier divorce process. Families can begin to reorganize themselves for the better, allowing for parents and children to move forward in a healthier and more positive manner.
