Managing Separation Together
Together we can explore these unknown factors and find practical and manageable ways to deal with all these questions and concerns in a step-by-step way.
I will show you how to surround yourself with a supportive team of people who you can rely on to give you the correct advice. Very often the very friends and family we think we can trust let us down or choose to be unavailable. Having a team around you in a difficult period of your life is essential.
Divorce and breakup, like the loss of a loved one, requires one to move through the Loss Cycle, the difference often is that with divorce people choose sides and pass judgment and one often is not only losing a relationship but friendships too.
The Benefits of Coaching
The divorce process (be it legal or emotional) can be a lonely and terrifying period of your life. All too often it feels as if everything has gone wrong, and the challenge of redefining who you are and how your future will look seems unmanageable.
While coaching does not provide anyone with legal or financial advice, it does help to prepare one for change. I can show you the tools and techniques that you can use to face your fears head on, learn to rely on yourself, take control of decisions and create a new life for yourself.
For many people who have not had to manage financial or legal decisions or even pay a bill, the fear of suddenly having to navigate this aspect of life can be overpowering. Coaching will give you a set of tools that you can use in every aspect of your life and in so doing you will be able to create an exciting future where you determine what is meaningful and fulfilling.
Together we can explore these unknown factors and find practical and manageable ways to deal with all your questions and concerns in a methodical way. I will show you how to surround yourself with a supportive team of people who you can rely on to give you the correct advice.
Testimonials
“I can’t recommend Barbara highly enough. Going through my divorce has been upsetting and stressful. Having Barbara felt like my hand has been held throughout the process, making me feel strong and confident. Barbara has listened to me, understood and empathised with my situation, something the lawyers do not do. Everyone needs Barbara, I just wish I knew about her earlier."
