Compassionate Divorce Coach for Women and their Families.
Your ally, offering empathy, strength, and hope for a brighter future.
Divorce is a journey filled with complexities, uncertainties, and emotions. You don't have to go through a divorce alone. As a certified divorce coach in the Twin Cities, I support women through high-conflict separations, co-parenting, and the rebuilding that follows — at every stage of divorce.
I'll walk beside you through change, creating a future in which you'll truly thrive.
You deserve guidance, understanding, and a trusted companion on this journey. My coaching isn't just about navigating legal proceedings or paperwork; it's about providing you with a reassuring presence, a compassionate voice, and the resources you need to advocate for yourself and your family.
Educational Support
From reading over documents to co-parenting education, I'll be there to clarify, advocate, and connect you with trusted referral partners.
Emotional & High-Conflict Support
I provide comfort during the discomfort of divorce. When communication keeps escalating, a high conflict divorce coach helps you set boundaries, prepare scripts, and document what matters — without matching the conflict.
Recovery and Rebuilding
As a divorce recovery coach, I help you rebuild routines, confidence, and a steady co-parenting rhythm once the legal chapter closes.
Hello, I'm Erica!
Divorce changes more than your relationship status, it reshapes your sense of safety, identity, and direction. Especially when children and family dynamics are involved.
When I went through my own divorce, I had capable legal representation, yet I found myself searching for something else entirely. I needed steady emotional support from someone who understood both the psychology of transition and the lived reality of divorce.
My approach is rooted in both education and experience — a Psychology degree from UW–Madison, a master's in Counseling Psychology from the University of St. Thomas, a second master's in School Counseling from Adler University, and Certified Divorce Coach training.
You don't have to do this alone, and you don't have to figure it out blindly.

Common Questions
What women ask before we begin.
What does a divorce coach do?
A divorce coach is a trained thinking partner who helps you prepare for, move through, and recover from divorce. I help you organize documents and questions before attorney meetings, manage the emotional weight of the process, plan for co-parenting, and make decisions from a clear head instead of a reactive one.
How is a divorce coach different from a therapist or an attorney?
An attorney handles the legal case. A therapist treats mental health and often works on healing the past. A divorce coach is forward-focused and practical: we work on the decisions, logistics, communication, and mindset of your divorce right now, so your attorney time is spent efficiently and you feel steady between meetings.
Do you work with high-conflict divorces?
Yes. A good deal of my work is as a high conflict divorce coach — helping women stay grounded when the other side is combative, communication keeps escalating, or every exchange feels like a trap. We build scripts, boundaries, documentation habits, and a parallel-parenting structure so you can protect your energy and your children without matching the conflict.
Do you work with women outside of Minnesota?
Yes. If you've been searching for a certified divorce coach near me from anywhere in the Twin Cities, I meet clients in person in Minneapolis, St. Paul, and the surrounding suburbs — and virtually with women anywhere in the United States. Coaching is not legal advice, so it isn't limited by state lines.
Can you help with co-parenting after the divorce is final?
That's often when the real work starts. As a co-parenting coach in Minneapolis, I help you set up schedules, handoffs, and communication that hold up under stress — and as a divorce recovery coach, I help you rebuild routines, finances, and confidence once the legal chapter closes.
When is the right time to start divorce coaching?
Any stage works. Many women reach out before filing, when they're still deciding or quietly preparing. Others start mid-process when things get overwhelming, and some begin afterward to rebuild identity, finances, and a co-parenting rhythm.
