Colorado Divorce Mediator

Hi there! I’m Liz.

Divorce tends to rob people of far more sleep, financial wealth, and happiness than it should. Too many people take this for granted.

As a divorce mediator in Fort Collins, I bring compassion, intelligence, and humor to my work. I am unbiased, help couples see the “big picture,” and guide them through the divorce process from beginning to end. I believe in the importance of maintaining or even strengthening relationships throughout the divorce process. I know that even though marriages end, relationships generally don’t, especially when there are children involved. I also recognize the emotional strain that conflict can bring to families, coworkers, and neighbors.
