Divorce With Amy

Divorce Doesn’t Have to Become a Battle.

A Better Way to Separate—with Less Conflict, Less Stress, and More Control.

If you’re here, chances are this isn’t where you imagined life would be.

Maybe conversations have become impossible. Maybe you’re worried about your children, your finances, your future, or simply making it through the next few months. Perhaps you’ve already spoken to attorneys and left feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or afraid that divorce has to become a long, expensive fight.

It doesn’t.

Divorce mediation offers another path—one built on respect, collaboration, and practical solutions.

My role is to help both of you navigate the difficult conversations, make informed decisions together, and create a thoughtful agreement that works for your family—not one that is decided by a judge who doesn’t know either of you.

You don’t have to agree on everything to begin.

You simply have to be willing to have the conversation.

Imagine Looking Back and Saying…

“It was one of the hardest things we’ve ever done… but we handled it with dignity.”

That is the goal.

Not to erase the pain.

Not to pretend everything is okay.

But to help you move through one of life’s biggest transitions in a way that protects your finances, your children, your emotional well-being, and your future relationship as co-parents if children are involved.

Divorce is the end of a marriage—not the end of your ability to work together.

What Is Divorce Mediation?

Divorce mediation is a voluntary, confidential process where a neutral professional helps you and your spouse reach agreements without fighting through the court system.

Instead of each hiring attorneys to negotiate against one another, we sit down together and work through each decision step by step.

We’ll discuss topics like:

  • Parenting schedules and co-parenting plans

  • Child support

  • Division of assets and debts

  • Retirement accounts

  • The marital home

  • Alimony or spousal support

  • Future communication and decision-making

  • Any unique concerns specific to your family

Every agreement is created together.

Nothing is forced on either of you.

My role isn’t to decide who’s right.

It’s to help both of you find solutions that are fair, realistic, and sustainable.

Why Couples Choose Mediation

Many couples are surprised to learn that mediation is often:

  • Significantly less expensive than litigation

  • Faster than going through court

  • Private and confidential

  • Less emotionally damaging

  • Better for children

  • More collaborative

  • More flexible

  • Focused on solutions instead of winning

Most importantly…

You remain in control.

Not attorneys.

Not the court.

You.

My Approach

As both a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Divorce Mediator, I bring something unique to the mediation process.

Divorce isn’t just a legal transition.

It’s an emotional one.

Years of hurt, misunderstandings, resentment, fear, and uncertainty often show up in the room alongside financial decisions and parenting plans.

That’s why I don’t simply move through paperwork.

I help people move through conversations.

I create a structured, calm environment where each person feels heard, communication becomes more productive, and difficult decisions become more manageable.

When emotions rise—as they naturally do—I help keep the process moving forward without losing sight of what matters most.

My style is warm, direct, organized, and solution-focused.

I ask the hard questions.

I slow conversations down when needed.

I help uncover options you may not have considered.

And I keep both of you focused on building the future instead of reliving the past.

Is Mediation Right for You?

Mediation may be a good fit if:

✓ You want to avoid an expensive court battle.

✓ You want more control over your divorce.

✓ You have children and want to protect your co-parenting relationship.

✓ You’d rather work toward solutions than fight through attorneys.

✓ You value privacy.

✓ You want a process that feels respectful—even if communication has been difficult.

You do not have to be getting along.

Many couples begin mediation while communication feels strained.

That’s exactly why mediation exists.

What the Process Looks Like

1. Complimentary Consultation

We’ll discuss your situation, answer your questions, explain how mediation works, and determine whether it’s the right fit.

2. Mediation Sessions

Together, we’ll work through every topic involved in your divorce at a pace that feels manageable.

Each session builds toward complete agreements.

3. Memorandum of Understanding

Once decisions have been made, I prepare a detailed Memorandum of Understanding outlining everything you’ve agreed upon.

This document can then be reviewed by your individual attorneys before being incorporated into your final divorce paperwork.
