Our Coaches

FROM extreme Pain Comes Extraordinary Strength

The only thing more soul-crushing than being married to a narcissistic individual is divorcing one. It is an assault on your character, spirit and financial stability. And so the battle begins - your children,  collateral damage. This divorce will not be fair, amicable or quick. 

 

Family court, insisting that both parties must be equally responsible for 'dragging it out', is complicit in the path of destruction - and is the high conflict parent's weapon of choice. "Think of your kids", judges scold. Except the narcissist can't. And if you - the protective parent - protest, you risk being labeled a paranoid alarmist trying to "alienate" your children from their other parent.

​

To anyone on the outside, this appears to be an over-exaggeration. But those of us on the inside know this is not a "normal" divorce. Because it was not a normal marriage.

Disclaimer: As certified high conflict divorce coaches, our mission is to educate protective co-parents who are experiencing post-separation abuse about its patterns of behaviors to help them respond with strength, knowledge and strategy in contested custody cases and co-parenting situations. While many factors contribute to abusive behaviors, survivors find behaviors exhibiting high degrees of narcissistic qualities to be especially relatable to their experiences. We have professional and lived experiences with domestic violence and post-separation abuse, but we are not qualified to offer legal advice or mental health care. While we are guided by the belief that children's rights to emotional and physical wellbeing should trump individual parental rights regardless of gender, studies show that domestic violence is a gendered crime.***
