Waves of Divorce with Dr Kerri

Let’s Ride It OutTogether

Divorce comes in waves.

You don’t have to navigate it alone.

I help divorcing parents create child-centered parenting plans and co-parenting strategies that actually work in real-life.

Thinking about divorce?

Are you feeling anxious, questioning whether you should stay or go, or wondering how to take the next steps?

Do you ever find yourself asking:

  • How did we get here?

  • Why do I feel so stuck?

  • Am I making the right decision?

  • How will this affect our kids?

  • Is this situation unhealthy?

  • How will we ever co-parent?

Whether you are early in the process or navigating ongoing challenges, I help you create a clear, workable path forward for you and your children.

Welcome to Waves of Divorce

I am a licensed psychologist (PhD) specializing in high-conflict divorce, co-parenting, and child-centered parenting plan design.

With over 25 years of clinical experience, advanced training in high conflict dynamics, and lived experience as a divorced mom, I help parents move from confusion and conflict to clarity and stability.

My work goes beyond traditional therapy. I help you:

  • Make informed, confident decisions

  • Create parenting plans that are realistic and sustainable

  • Reduce conflict and improve communication

  • Navigate high-conflict or emotionally complex dynamics

  • Build a co-parenting structure that supports your child long-term

The divorce process comes in waves.

Some waves are calm and manageable.

Others feel overwhelming and take your breath away.

Together, we navigate each phase.

Decision Wave

Clarity, guidance, and support in making one of the most important decisions of your life and strategies for communicating your decision.

Process Wave

Mediation, parenting plans, custody evaluations, and navigating legal and emotional complexities of reaching a settlement.

Co-Parenting Wave

Building a functional, child-centered co-parenting relationship.

High Conflict/Post-Separation Wave

Managing ongoing conflict, difficult communication, and complex dynamics.

Rebuilding Wave

Rediscovering yourself, rebuilding confidence, and creating your next chapter.

Dating/New Relationship Wave

Learning about your relational needs, recognizing red and green flags, and building healthy relationship tools.

Blended Family Wave

Navigating new relationships and family systems.

I will help you develop the tools, clarity, and confidence to navigate each phase of your divorce and move toward a more stable, empowered future.

    Co-Parenting Counseling & Consulting

Every divorce is unique and so is my approach to healing.

No two families are exactly the same. Your history, your relationship dynamics, your children, and your circumstances all shape how this process unfolds.

At the same time, divorce often brings a common set of challenges. Uncertainty, emotional overwhelm, difficult decisions, and concerns about your children’s well-being.

Together, we will understand your unique family dynamics, what matters most, and will create practical solutions for moving forward.

This is not a one-size-fits-all process. It is a thoughtful, individualized approach designed to help you build a path that truly works for your life.
