Liz is 5 star all the way! She began our process very informative and she was always available to answer any questions that we had. She offered Zoom calls and went through every form with us step by step explaining what we didn’t understand. Her expertise and compassion made this experience as positive as it could be! Thanks again Liz!

I can't recommend Liz enough. The way in which she navigated a high-stakes conversation between my ex and I really helped us move through the parenting plan with relative ease. Liz demonstrated objectivity and her ability to stay calm and grounded was a reassurance to both of us.

Liz helped me through a very high conflict divorce and continues to help me be more self-aware and consistent when dealing with my co-parent. Her strategies have helped me stand up for myself in difficult situations while ensuring the interests of my children are at the forefront.

I had never heard of a Divorce Coach before Liz, but I knew I needed support. When I read her description of High Conflict divorce personalities, I knew I found someone who could help me navigate the emotional difficulties that divorce brings. She helped me find the context and the strategies of dealing with a high conflict personality, as well as the gaslighting. Because of her wisdom, I was able to move through my mediated divorce as smoothly as possible, as well as save money. Thank you so much, Liz.
