  • Single Classes - No Dues

    Divorce Coaches Academy is designed to be open and accessible to every practicing divorce coach. No annual dues, just choose the class or program you're interested in...and voila, you're in. It's that easy! Join us live or watch the recorded version on your own schedule.

  • Reflective Practice and Intensives

    One of the hardest things about being a solopreneur and independent practitioner is the lack of collaborative work opportunities. If you're searching for a facilitated "think tank' environment, check out our Case Consultation Group or Training Intensives.

  • Casual Networking

    In addition to classes, specialty trainings, and mentorship opportunities, watch for Socials, Happy Hours, Book Clubs and other special events. We're planning get togethers where practicing, professional coaches can gather for topical discussions or just fun, casual networking.

Divorce Coaches Academy is directed by an advisory board of highly successful certified divorce coaches committed to the profession. They represent a variety of backgrounds and each brings particular areas of expertise including family law, finance, mediation, pastoral counseling, and health services.

In this focused session, Tracy took us on a trip inside of the vehicle with our client. I learned how to navigate the session with the client by using GPS (gather, prioritize and strategize)! This course was educational and I loved Tracy’s empathetic care in teaching us to deliver the best value to the client!

I really appreciated this course! Trying to figure out how to gain clients can be daunting, but Debra provides us with a roadmap for success. She gives actionable steps to take, and explains the importance of each. As a coach at the very beginning of my coaching career, this course answered questions I didn't yet know to ask. Gaining this knowledge, from the tried-and-true experience of a successful coach, leaves me feeling equipped to set myself up for success, as well.
