If you or someone you know has prayerfully concluded that separation or divorce may be inevitable, yet are seeking a respectful alternative to expensive divorce or custody litigation, then consider the mediation or the Collaborative Divorce Process.

I am deeply committed to offering the Collaborative Divorce Process to assist clients in making informed, cooperative decisions about their future.
