This was my first time ever going through a divorce and my ex had done it 3 times. He was great at manipulating and knew what he was doing. I had no idea. Lauren was able to provide me with all the info I needed and guided me when I had NO idea. I never would have been able to get as far as I did without her. Lauren was very supportive and helpful! Lauren was able to provide me with peace when I was stressed by explaining the next steps and reassuring me that what I was asking for wasn’t anything ridiculous. When I was stuck on decisions, she was able to talk through all the possible outcomes to help guide me towards a decision without pressuring me one way or another.”

Deciding to divorce is a big step. One that you have probably been thinking about for quite some time. You’re in one of two boats: You’ve either already made the decision to divorce or you’re still on the fence. Either way, you want to make sure you get it right.
If you’re still on the fence, you know there are significant issues in the marriage but there’s something holding you back from moving forward. You’ve invested a lot of yourself in this relationship and you don’t know if it’s time to throw in the towel but also know things can’t stay the same.
If you have already made the decision to divorce, you’re concerned with getting it right in the process. And you don’t know exactly how to do that. You’re used to getting things done, but when it comes to divorce, you’re lacking confidence and knowledge about how to best tackle this transition and the unfamiliar legal process. You may not have done this before, and you don’t know where to start. There are a thousand questions swirling around in your mind and you’re getting overwhelmed with the scope of the uncertainty that lies ahead.
"Divorce is a plot twist – not the end of your story. It can be a life-changing opportunity to grow, evolve, rediscover your values, reconnect with your soul, revive your spirit, and come out ahead in ways you never thought possible."
If you’re looking for a professional divorce coach that can help you understand your next steps and create a smart plan of action, you're in the right place.

What is Divorce Coaching?
Not familiar with what a divorce coach does?
Divorce coaching is a recognized dispute resolution process recognized by The American Bar Association and the Association for Conflict Resolution, which define it as:
“Divorce coaching is a flexible, goal-oriented process designed to support, motivate, and guide people going through divorce to help them make the best possible decisions for their future, based on their interests, needs and concerns.”
Divorce coaching fills a gap between the services provided by an attorney and those provided by a therapist. We wish we would have had this kind of support when going through our own divorces.
When you’re going through a divorce, you need compassionate, knowledgeable, and non-judgmental support in navigating the business of divorce, the lived experience of divorce, and moving on from divorce, which a divorce coach is specially trained to address.
Can you get through divorce without the compassionate, strategic guidance of a professional divorce coach? Of course, but why would you want to? The amount and quality of support people receive during the divorce process directly correlates to the quality of their life post-divorce.
You deserve to start prioritizing your needs and investing in your well-being as you navigate this significant life event.

She is understanding, yet no-nonsense and helped to keep me on track with the overwhelming tasks of starting over.
Lauren was an amazing support to me during the beginning stages of my divorce when I had no idea what I was doing. Her non-judgmental, “stop beating yourself up” approach was exactly what I needed. She is understanding, yet no-nonsense and helped to keep me on track with the overwhelming tasks of starting over. She helped me focus on the positives in my life and gave me strategies and tools that fit with my particular situation. I will forever be grateful to have been able to lean on Lauren through this emotional and difficult process.

I started my sessions with Lauren feeling lost and finished our time together confident and hopeful.
Once I made the life-changing decision to seek a divorce, I knew I was going to need some help and guidance. Lauren was the perfect fit for me in that she was able to share her legal knowledge about the divorce process with me, but also could provide me with the needed emotional support and validation I needed along my journey. I started my sessions with Lauren feeling lost and finished our time together confident and hopeful. I am so grateful and I would recommend any woman going through the divorce process meet with Lauren!

Lauren Fair’s expertise, empathy, compassion, and thoroughness were a grounding force for me during a traumatic time.
Lauren Fair’s expertise, empathy, compassion, and thoroughness were a grounding force for me during a traumatic time. Compounding the typical stressors of divorce were the realities of fundamentally different parenting styles. I often found myself lamenting to Lauren. She served impeccably . . . to the point where Lauren also became a confidante.

Absolutely! We work with clients who have attorneys and clients who do not. One of the benefits to having a coach while you have an attorney is that the coach can help you to use your attorney as efficiently and strategically as possible so you can spend your money on legal fees wisely.
