Divorce With Dignity – Napa and Solano
When your relationship ends, it can feel like your whole life is collapsing.
Even if you were the one to initiate the separation… even if you know deep down that this is the right path forward… the process of divorce still has a way of shaking your foundation—emotionally, mentally, physically, and financially.
I’ve seen it—and lived it—more times than I can count.
As a family law attorney and certified divorce mediator for over 20 years, I’ve helped hundreds of individuals and couples navigate the legal side of divorce. But I’ve also witnessed the personal toll it takes: the sleepless nights, the fear of the unknown, the breakdown of communication, the struggle to maintain stability for kids or family, and the deep exhaustion of trying to hold it all together.
That’s why I’ve expanded my services through Divorce With Dignity – Napa and Solano.
Because divorce doesn’t have to destroy you. You can move through it in a way that is grounded, supported, and intentionally aligned with your values.
You can be Divorce Strong™.
What Does It Mean to Be Divorce Strong™?
Being Divorce Strong™ isn’t about pretending everything’s fine.
It’s not about bulldozing through your grief, masking your emotions, or skipping straight to “I’m okay.”
Divorce Strong™ means:
-
You honor your pain—but don’t get stuck in it.
-
You ask for help when you need it—and recognize that support is a strength, not a weakness.
-
You choose your next steps intentionally—instead of being dragged through a court system that doesn’t know you.
-
You treat your body, mind, and heart with care—because this chapter is hard enough without added depletion.
It’s about staying rooted in who you are and what matters most… even as things fall apart.
Divorce Isn’t Just Legal—It’s Personal, Physical, and Emotional
One of the biggest misconceptions about divorce is that it’s only about legal documents and court filings. But the truth is, divorce is also about identity, routines, relationships, self-worth, and daily life.
That’s why I opened Divorce With Dignity – Napa and Solano as a sister practice to my traditional family law firm.
This offering is centered around:
-
Mediation to help you stay in control of your outcomes
-
Divorce coaching for guidance, clarity, and emotional steadiness
-
Parenting plans and co-parenting agreements that are custom-fit for your family
-
Document preparation and process navigation without litigation
-
Wellness-based support to keep you physically and mentally strong throughout the transition
This is not a one-size-fits-all approach.
It’s not a flat-fee paperwork factory.
It’s not “just get it over with.”
It’s real support—for the whole of who you are.
Bringing Wellness Into the Divorce Process—With No Pressure
What sets my Divorce Strong™ approach apart is how I integrate wellness—not in a way that feels forced or unrealistic, but in a way that meets you where you are.
As a professional natural bodybuilder, Fitness Expert Contributor for STRONG Fitness Magazine, and long-time wellness advocate, I understand firsthand how the mind, body, and spirit are connected. During divorce, we often lose sight of our own care. We go into survival mode. And while that’s understandable, it’s not sustainable.
That’s why my approach includes optional, gentle support around:
-
Physical wellness and stress management
-
Nutrition guidance to help with emotional regulation and resilience
-
Body movement or fitness suggestions for re-grounding (no gym membership required)
-
Coaching strategies to help you stay focused, clear, and self-aware
You don’t have to be “into fitness.”
You don’t have to follow a wellness routine.
But if you’re open to it, these resources are here to help you feel strong—not just legally, but personally.
You’re Allowed to Care for Yourself During Divorce
Too many people think divorce means suffering.
That self-care has to wait until “it’s all over.”
That once the paperwork is done, then they’ll heal.
But healing doesn’t begin when the ink dries.
It begins the moment you decide that your well-being matters—even during the hard parts.
That’s why the Divorce Strong™ mindset is so powerful. It says:
“This will not define me. It will refine me.”
What You Can Expect If We Work Together

-
Mediation to resolve things peacefully

Divorce coaching to stay emotionally grounded

A wellness-informed approach that helps you feel like yourself again
…you’ll be met with professionalism, compassion, and real guidance.
You won’t be pressured into any one path.
You won’t be judged.
You won’t be rushed.
Instead, you’ll have a partner who understands both the legal and personal sides of this transition—and who honors your full humanity in the process.
