Let Go of Your Divorce Fears
Take Hold of Your Future
Divorce Isn’t Easy
So Many Questions…
Is my marriage really over? Am I doing right by my kids? Can I afford to divorce? Should I fight for the house? Could I lose my business? How are we ever going to agree? Is co-parenting my only option? Is my lawyer right for me? Is a court battle inevitable? Am I being too passive? Too aggressive? What’s my new life going to look like? Am I ever going to be happy again? What do I even want?
So Much at Stake…
I’m Barbara Diggs, a DCA® Certified Divorce Coach and former attorney.
I help you explore challenging questions about divorce and separation, and identify clear-eyed solutions to your most urgent concerns.
Divorce is one of the most difficult life transitions a person can go through. Overwhelming feelings can leave you confused and exhausted. Conflict can spiral out of control. Strain and tension can make it hard to think clearly, leaving you vulnerable to making hasty or emotional decisions that ultimately work against you.
Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be this way.
With the right guidance and support, you can manage your emotions, reduce conflict, and avoid getting pulled into endless emotionally and financially draining battles with your soon-to-be-ex.
I’m here to help you define and stay focused on your goals so you can make informed, well-balanced decisions that allow you to feel confident about your future–and good about yourself.

I’m based in Paris, France but work with clients anywhere the world to help them divorce or separate with as much peace and clarity as possible.
A Stanford law graduate and former corporate litigator, I turned to divorce coaching because I wanted to support people–particularly women and expats–facing this monumental change in their lives.
