About Me
My
Journey
My path to becoming a Divorce Coach and Mediator was shaped by both a personal experience and a deep desire to help others. After my third child was born, I felt a calling to pursue a career that would allow me to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives.
This led me to obtain a Bachelor’s degree in Social Sciences, psychology, providing a strong foundation in understanding human behavior and relationships. However, it was my own experience navigating divorce after 20 years of marriage that truly ignited my passion for this field.
Faced with a lack of information and support, I took the initiative to empower myself by studying ADR (alternative dispute resolution) through Mediation Academy, gaining expertise in family law and mediation. I became a SAAM accredited mediator, equipped to facilitate constructive dialogue and help couples reach mutually agreeable solutions.
Driven by a desire to provide more comprehensive support, I furthered my training through CDC to become a Certified Divorce Coach. This certification allows me to provide personalized guidance, support, and strategies to help individual clients navigate the emotional, practical, and legal aspects of divorce.
I can proudly say that I am the first Certified Divorce coach in South Africa, and together with my mediation training, I offer a unique service of understanding and assisting individuals and couples through this chapter.
