Divorce Coach Stories – Critical Thinking During Emotional Overwhelm

CDC Certified Divorce Coach^®, Susan Bernstein, gives insight in this video on how she was able to help her client gain clarity and express to her divorce attorney exactly what she needed. Susan’s client was also struggling with how to communicate to her husband how to best co-parent their child.

Susan’s client came to her because although she had a wonderful attorney, her attorney was only dealing with the legal aspect of divorce while this was a very emotional time for her. Her client realized she needed assistance dealing with the emotional impact of the divorce as well.

With Susan’s help, her client was able to get unstuck from the current situation and think critically, making the best decisions for herself and her son without becoming emotionally overwhelmed. Her client is now working through the post-divorce issues and is actually on good terms with her ex-husband, a place she never expected to be. In addition, her son feels comfortable with them both around, and they all feel that they have a positive future together in a separate way to co-parent their son.
