The Hidden Cost of Emotional Chaos
- Attorneys must play therapist to get clients regulated enough to hear legal advice
- Cases extend longer than necessary due to emotional reactivity
- Defining moments of divorce happen outside your office when emotions are high
- Internal narratives like “I must win” or “I might as well give up” become self-fulfilling prophecies in negotiations
- Clients avoid “bothering” their attorney, leading to sleepless nights and poor decision-making

Better Than Before Divorce™ is a structured group coaching program designed for family law clients looking for emotional support, communication tools, and practical guidance as they move through divorce.
It complements your legal representation by helping clients regulate emotions, communicate effectively, and make clear, thoughtful decisions — which reduces overwhelm and helps clients to hear and act on your good advice.
Human beings often become emotionally flooded in the face of fear, uncertainty, and loss – all of which are present during a significant transition like divorce. When clients are overwhelmed and shut down, they can’t regulate emotions and that affects their ability to process legal advice, make decisions, and stay engaged.
This program provides professional emotional support and tools to stabilize clients early, helping them regain calm and confidence so they can work productively with their legal team, move their case forward, and start to envision a life beyond this transition.
The Better Than Before Divorce™ Group Coaching Program is offered online and combines live coaching sessions, on-demand lessons, and guided exercises clients can complete at their own pace.
You can refer clients directly to the program, they can join anytime, and get immediate access to a supportive community, live coaching calls, and all the supporting materials through a private platform. There’s no administrative burden for your firm — clients enroll and participate independently, while you benefit from calmer, more focused client interactions. (*If you would like a dedicated call specifically for clients of your firm, please reach out for details.)
The program includes:
- The Coping & Growth Toolkit, a complete online course with 2.5+ hours of video content, exercises, and reflection prompts.
- Live weekly group coaching calls with Andra and guest professionals.
- Downloadable guides and workbooks with communication scripts, tools, and strategies for managing emotions.
- 24/7 Access to the private Better Than Before Divorce™ community, where clients receive ongoing encouragement, accountability, and resources.
Topics include emotional regulation, communication and boundary-setting, managing co-parenting challenges, rebuilding self-trust, and developing a clear vision for post-divorce life.
Each lesson is built around Andra’s Clear Client Process™, a four-step framework that helps clients stabilize emotions, strategize next steps, strengthen communication, and sustain progress.
Attorneys consistently report that clients who participate in coaching show up calmer, communicate more clearly, and make faster, more rational decisions.
Andra’s clients frequently describe feeling more in control, more confident, and more hopeful about the future — allowing you to focus on legal strategy instead of crisis management.
Absolutely. You can schedule a brief consultation to explore how the program fits your firm’s workflow and client needs.
