Divorce Coaching Overview

Navigate your divorce with clarity, confidence, and compassion

Your Guide Through the Divorce Journey

If you're reading this, you've likely taken the courageous first step toward creating a better outcome for your divorce journey. You've recognized that having support during this process can make a profound difference in how you navigate these waters and what your life looks like on the other side.

I'm James Traub, a CDC Certified Divorce Coach®, and I'm here to be your guide, your sounding board, and your advocate.

How Divorce Coaching Helps


Emotional Clarity

Move from emotional overwhelm to clear thinking, allowing you to make decisions based on your values rather than fear or anger.

Communication Skills

Develop strategies for productive conversations with your ex-spouse, children, and others in your support network.

Strategic Decision-Making

Make confident choices during critical moments with tools and frameworks that help you evaluate options effectively.

Future Planning

Create a vision for your life post-divorce and build practical steps toward making it a reality.

Efficient Legal Process

Work more effectively with your legal team, saving time, money, and emotional energy throughout the process.

Stability During Transition

Establish routines and practices that provide stability for yourself and your children during this period of change.

Understanding Divorce Coaching


Divorce coaching is a structured partnership designed to help you navigate the divorce process with greater clarity and confidence. As your coach, I provide strategic support, emotional guidance, and practical tools tailored to your unique situation.

How Divorce Coaching Differs From Other Services

Divorce Coaching vs. Legal Services

While attorneys provide legal advice and representation, coaches help you prepare for and process legal meetings. Coaching helps you use legal services more efficiently by focusing on the practical and emotional aspects of divorce.

Divorce Coaching vs. Therapy

Therapy often explores past patterns and emotional healing, while coaching focuses on present challenges and future planning. We work on immediate decisions and practical strategies, with our focus on moving forward rather than processing past events.
