Clear Financial Guidance During Divorce and Life Transitions

Support for the financial decisions you’re facing now—from organizing what you own and evaluating settlement options to planning confidently for life after divorce.

start with a conversation

Divorce can quickly turn everyday financial decisions into overwhelming ones. Questions that once felt routine—about money, housing, or the future—can suddenly carry much higher stakes.

My role is to provide structure and perspective when decisions feel overwhelming. Whether you are early in the process, reviewing a settlement proposal, or preparing for life after divorce, thoughtful financial planning provides structure when emotions and uncertainty run high.

You don’t need to have everything figured out to begin. We start where you are.

Support Before, During, and After Divorce

Divorce isn’t a single moment—it’s a process. The financial questions, emotions, and decisions change depending on where you are. I work with individuals at every stage of divorce to provide clear, thoughtful financial guidance that supports both the decisions you’re facing now and the life you’re building next.

As a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst™ (CDFA®), I’m specifically trained in the financial and tax implications of divorce. While this may be your first time navigating divorce, it’s not mine. I work alongside you—and with your attorney, mediator, or other professionals as needed—to help you chart a thoughtful, informed, and as graceful an exit from your marriage as possible.

Pre-Divorce Financial Planning

If you’re considering divorce—or have just been served—you may feel uncertain, overwhelmed, or anxious about what comes next.

Questions You May Be Asking Yourself

Can I afford to leave my marriage?
Am I going to be financially okay?
What should I do before I ask for a divorce?
How do I prepare financially without making things worse

Pre‑divorce planning is about understanding your options before decisions are locked in. Having a financial plan in place early can help you approach divorce with greater clarity, confidence, and leverage—rather than reacting under pressure.

How I Help Before Divorce

Helping you understand your current financial landscape
Assessing cash flow and future affordability
Identifying financial and tax considerations before legal steps are taken
Preparing information that may be needed once the process begins

Planning ahead can lead to better outcomes—and often a smoother process—once the conversation shifts from if to how.

Financial Planning During Divorce

During divorce, financial decisions often come quickly and with lasting consequences. Emotions, timelines, and competing advice can make it difficult to know which choices truly support your long‑term stability.

At this stage, financial planning helps bring structure and perspective to complex decisions—so they’re made with understanding, not haste.

How I help during divorce:

Creating a clear inventory of assets and liabilities
Helping evaluate and model settlement options and trade‑offs
Analyzing tax implications of different settlement structures
Reviewing proposed settlement terms from a long‑term planning perspective
Working alongside attorneys, mediators, arbitrators, or court processes

Whether your divorce is resolved through mediation, arbitration, or litigation, my role is to help you understand the financial impact of decisions before they become permanent.

Post‑Divorce Financial Planning

After divorce, many people feel a mix of relief, exhaustion, and uncertainty. The legal process may be complete, but the financial questions often continue.

Post‑divorce planning focuses on helping you regain confidence, organization, and control—so money supports the life you want to live now.

How I help after divorce:

Organizing accounts and simplifying your financial picture
Creating a sustainable cash‑flow and investment strategy
Planning for short‑ and long‑term financial independence
Rebuilding confidence around financial decision‑making

Helping you reclaim time and energy for the things you enjoy
This phase is about moving forward with intention—grounded in clarity and aligned with your priorities.
