Consult with Steph
I'm a licensed master social worker, psychotherapist, high conflict divorce coach and mediator, with 25+ years of experience. I have trained at Columbia University School of Social Work , The International Trauma Studies Program, The Center for Mediation and Training. and The High Conflict Divorce Certification Program. With a holistic, psychosocial approach, I utilize an attentive, reflective, and interactive therapeutic process enabling clients to gain deeper self-awareness, insight.and strategy. I have extensive experience supporting individuals and families in crisis and through life transitions.
Navigating a toxic divorce? Experiencing post separation abuse and coercive control? Concerned about the impact upon your children?
I offer high conflict divorce consulting for protective parents navigating divorce and post separation coercive control.
Divorce & separation is hard. Divorcing a toxic partner is exponentially harder, and requires working alongside a supportive strategy partner who understands your challenges and believes you.
I offer parenting coordination as a way to assist co-parents to effectively communicate, compromise and make decisions together on behalf of their children.
I offer divorce & family mediation for couples who prefer a non-adversarial, cost-effective, and self-determining process in facilitating stressful life events like separation, divorce, creation of parenting plans and navigating you rnew roles as coparents. By making decisions yourselves, I will help you find compromise and guide you through the process, beginning to end.
I will empower you and your partner to make what may be a very difficult situation a lot easier by facilitating mediation in a kind and organized manner. I will provide everything you need to get from the beginning of the process to the end of a settlement, and beyond. I mediate with a strong emphasis on kindness and fairness.
Dialogue is the most effective way of resolving conflict
