HI, I’M ASH

CDC Certified Divorce Coach®

My mission in coaching began with a single objective:
to dispel the narrative of the “broken family” and dismantle the stigma surrounding divorce.
I’m a big believer that a family’s bond can extend across two homes, and can even thrive post-divorce.

What Is Divorce Coaching?

In 2013, The Association for Conflict Resolution (USA) included Divorce Coaching among their list of dispute resolution processes, and defined it this way: "Divorce coaching is a flexible, goal-oriented process designed to support, motivate, and guide people going through divorce to help them make the best possible decisions for their future, based on their interests, needs and concerns.”

The CDC Certified Divorce Coach® is the only regulated divorce coaching certification globally and holds their coaches to the highest ethical and professional standards.

Divorce Coaching can be used in conjunction with other forms of dispute resolution including Mediation, Collaborative Divorce, and Legal Proceedings.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

  • Ashleigh is a warm, empathetic and engaging coach who leads with compassion. I immediately felt at ease with her which enabled me to really open up so that resolving my issues became almost effortless. Ash seemed to know exactly what I needed to do at every point. Coaching never felt like a chore and our sessions were always relaxed, yet extremely productive. On many occasions she was able to help me see another side to my story that I would never have been able to visualise otherwise. This led to me being able to move forward with the particular issues I was facing. I would highly recommend Ashleigh's coaching to anyone looking to get unstuck and move forward in a positive and dignified way.

  • I found Ash to be an exceptional coach. She is a superb listener who delves deeply into understanding personal situations. Despite having undertaken a considerable amount of development work previously, I was energised by her positivity and the fresh techniques she introduced. Her emphasis on encouraging me to apply these tools for tangible improvements in my situation and mindset was especially helpful. I now feel hopeful and excited for the next chapter.
