I have transformed my life, and can help you transform yours. I am not only a divorce and relationship coach, teacher, mediator, retreat leader and author, but an intuitive guide who will join with you to rediscover the love and passion YOU deserve.

Raised by a teen mother in the projects, I became a compassionate warrior for the underdog and as a divorce attorney and relationship coach, my life work, my mission, is to help others heal from the pain and hurts caused by relationships.

I have been in your shoes. Divorced twice and a mother to children in their early 20’s, I found and married the love of my life at age 49! How do you do that? You break down your walls (you know what I’m talking about), forgive those who have hurt you, and then forgive yourself for feeling like a fool, for not knowing better, for all the mistakes you keep beating yourself up about. OK, then the real work starts. You start working on yourself, with my help, to become the BEST person you can be to attract the BEST partner into your life. The path to a great spiritual partnership starts with YOU. Are you ready?

I am thrilled to be an expert on YOUR TANGO, to offer you tons of helpful advice, and to work with you, one on one, to help you find your way back to love. The passion that keeps me going is my gift of bringing people back to love.

Divorce and getting back out there in the dating world takes courage. And it takes hard work. I do not have a magic pill, sorry. But I can be that courageous partner-guide for you, as your mentor and expert Love-Advice Coach.

Among many accomplishments, I am most proud of these:

The Reason I Became A Helping Professional

Back in the 60's, being a child of divorce was even more difficult than it is now, because there were no other children in that position in my class. I had step parents, half-sisters, and weekends dedicated to visiting my dad. My parents did not do divorce well, they were angry and bitter and of course, their fighting affected me and my sisters.

I grew into a wild, angry, teenager, using drugs and looking for love in all the wrong places. Fortunately, my mother had the foresight to send me to a drug-rehabilitation center. As my self esteem and self confidence grew, I knew I wanted to be a counselor.

In undergraduate school, I ran a woman's center, organized large scale concerts and conferences, worked for a domestic violence shelter and for planned parenthood. Realizing that that social workers were not taken seriously, I went to law school.

As a Family Law Attorney, I helped many people go through their divorce, but my most difficult client was myself! I went through an emotionally difficult divorce, and realized I was becoming my own bitter and angry mother! I did not want that and knew enough to keep the children out of the divorce. I learned how to stop my obsessing, to co-parent, and to forgive him and myself. I learned to set healthy boundaries for myself and my children. I learned how to separate what was best for me from what was best for them. I saw first hand the damage the court system did to families, and decided I did not want to 'fight' for a living.

Becoming a Mediator and a Coach offered me the opportunity to help people in a whole different way. I realized you can not be happy, healthy and whole when you hold on to anger, bitterness, and resentment. I developed classes for people going through divorce, and eventually, for people leaving abusive relationships, and these classes led me to write my two wonderful workbooks, Transcending Divorce and Freedom From Abuse.
