Consulting
(Litigation Discovery & Coercive Control)
Litigation Discovery Consulting (similar to Divorce Coaching) is a professional partnership in which I analyze a situation and provide advice and feedback to you, based on experience and expertise. You will receive assistance with legal discovery including evidence gathering, mapping perpetrator patterns, and documentation in your legal case. We dive deeper into coercive control perpetrated by systems and institutional betrayal awareness and responses. I will use proven results based methodologies, tools, and skills. You will receive wisdom and guidance through advising.

Many women and girls are not aware they are in coercively controlling relationships; how dangerous these abusers are, how to escape, or how to heal from the abuses. This in turn creates complex trauma and can affect their lives in negative ways and perpetuate problems in their lives and future generations if not recognized, dealt with, and processed.
