If you’ve ever wondered what a divorce coach actually does, you’re not alone. Most people only discover this profession when they’re already in the thick of heartbreak, confusion, or crisis, and suddenly realise they need more than legal advice or well-meaning encouragement from friends.
They need support, structure, emotional steadiness, and someone who can guide them through decisions that feel impossibly heavy.
That’s where breakup and divorce coaches come in.
As a Breakup & Divorce Coach, my role is to help you navigate one of the most emotionally demanding periods of your life with clarity, strength, and confidence. Here’s what that really looks like in practice — both inside and outside our sessions.
1. We help you make sense of the emotional chaos
Divorce brings shock, grief, anger, fear, guilt, and sometimes relief, all in a confusing jumble.
My job is to help you understand these emotions without being overwhelmed by them. Together, we:
- Break down what you’re feeling and why it makes sense
- Build coping strategies to manage anxiety and overthinking
- Restore your sense of self after betrayal, rejection or loss
- Rebuild your confidence so you can stand strong again
You don’t have to “be strong” alone — we hold that space with you.
2. We support you with clear, practical next steps
Divorce doesn’t just hurt emotionally — it’s a logistical avalanche.
Coaches help you get organised, prioritise your next steps, and feel in control again. That includes:
- What to do in the first 24 hours after a breakup or discovery of infidelity
- How to communicate (or not communicate) with your ex
- How to prepare for mediation or meetings with solicitors
- How to set boundaries and protect your peace
- What to consider when children are involved
Think of us as a calm, structured guide helping you make decisions that your future self will thank you for.
3. We help you recognise — and break free from — toxic patterns
A lot of clients come to us after infidelity, manipulation, gaslighting or emotional abuse.
You might be questioning your reality, your worth, or your sanity.
We help you:
- Recognise unhealthy dynamics
- Understand trauma responses
- Break the cycle of going back
- Learn how to detach emotionally
- Rebuild your identity and boundaries
Healing isn’t about “moving on”…
It’s about moving forward with strength and self-respect.
4. We help you co-parent with clarity and calm
Co-parenting with a difficult or high-conflict ex can feel like walking through fire.
Together, we find ways to:
- Communicate safely and effectively
- Put the children’s emotional wellbeing first
- Reduce conflict and triggers
- Handle decision-making without constant battles
You deserve peace.
Your children do too.
5. We help you plan your future — not just survive the present
Divorce isn’t the end of the story. It’s a turning point.
Once we stabilise your emotional and practical foundations, we shift into rebuilding mode:
- Rediscovering who you are now
- Reconnecting with your confidence
- Setting new goals
- Exploring dreams that got buried under years of stress
- Creating a life that feels exciting, not frightening
This is where clients often tell me:
“I feel more like myself than I have in years.”
6. There’s also work behind the scenes — advocating, educating and creating resources
Coaching is my passion, but for most of us, work doesn’t end with 1:1 sessions. We’re constantly expanding how we support people going through divorce.
Social Media
We share tools, emotional insights, and bite-sized coaching tips on Instagram and other platforms so people can get support on the days they feel most alone.
Podcasts & Guest Interviews
We speak on podcasts to raise awareness, normalise what people go through, and teach strategies that genuinely help.
Networking with Solicitors, Mediators & Therapists
We collaborate with family lawyers, financial planners and mental health experts so we can provide the widest, safest and most informed support possible.
My network becomes your support system.
Workshops & Live Sessions
We run classes, group coaching sessions and trainings to help people learn tools that build emotional resilience and confidence.
Our mission is always the same:
To make sure nobody has to go through heartbreak feeling lost or unsupported.
So… what does a divorce coach do?
We help you hold it together when everything feels like it’s falling apart.
We guide you through decisions that shape your future.
We help you heal wounds you didn’t ask for.
And we stand with you as you rebuild your life — stronger, wiser and more grounded than before.
If you’re going through a breakup or divorce and need someone in your corner, I’m here.
You don’t have to do this alone.
