We can’t fully heal in isolation.

Group support provides us with the opportunity to create safe connections with others who understand what we have experienced.

Hi, I’m Danielle

I’ve been an educator for 25 years, and have been supporting and coaching women since 2009.

I’ve experienced family violence and post-separation abuse, and successfully navigated high-conflict divorce - including a three year court battle.

For a lot of my own personal high-conflict journey, I didn’t know anyone else who really understood what I was dealing with.

By offering group support opportunties via The Membership, I help women to safely connect with others who get it.

The Membership provides us with the opportunity to learn from the experiences of others. Some members have experienced the court process, and have final parenting orders, others are just beginning their journey and are still in the planning stages of separation. Others are somewhere in between.

One thing I know for sure; we are stronger, and braver, together.

I wasn’t sure what to expect from group coaching. I’ve never spoken much about my experiences because I didn’t think anyone else would understand what I have gone through. I was blown away from my first group session, hosted by Danielle. The other women on the call were amazing and there was an immediate understanding between us because of the similar things we had experienced. I’ve attended more group calls since then, and I’m looking forward to attending more.

I truly realise now that I’m not alone. I always knew that there were other women who were going through something similar because I had attended group counselling sessions that were related to family violence, but they just weren’t the right fit for me. I felt that family violence counselling was keeping me stuck in victimhood because everyone was hung up on being ‘triggered’. This is where Danielle’s approach is different. Coaching is different to counselling, and Danielle has helped me so much by opening my mind to the fact that being triggered isn’t necessarily bad, it can be an opportunity for healing when we are supported and have the right tools. I’ve made more progress in the 4 weeks of working with Danielle, and the other ladies in group coaching, than I did in two years of therapy.
If you want to stay a victim, stay away from coaching. But if you’re ready to do the work to move on and create something new, and something better, start working with Danielle!

Why Group Support?


Trauma often happens within the context of relationships, and a significant amount of healing occurs in the context of relationships too - the power of 'we', supporting the healing of 'me'.

 

For a lot of my own separation and divorce journey, I didn't have any friends who were separated or divorced, and I didn't know anyone who understood what is now referred to as 'coercive control' and 'family violence'. In fact, 15 years ago, those terms weren’t being used at all in the community.

It took me a long time to work out what I had experienced, because I was navigating it alone.

I also struggled with my healing journey because I felt so isolated.

Whilst none of us is to blame for the trauma we carry, we are each responsible for our healing, and for creating safety for ourselves.

Importantly, safety is not the absence of threat.

Safety is the presence of connection.

The Stronger Braver Together Community is a safe space for you to connect with other women in a positive and solution-focused way, and all members have been personally invited by me because work with Trudie and I via 1:1 coaching.


The Community is a safe space to share what is going on for you, to up-skill and learn more about what you are dealing with, and to connect with other women who are on a journey of positive transformation after separation.


 

Women talking about their high-conflict ex? You might think its all doom and gloom and negativity. But I can promise it’s not.

We share the highs as well as the lows, and we celebrate each other and lift each other up. We also have a have a lot of laughs together.

I love jumping on a group call whenever I can to share a bit of my journey, and learn from the experience and wisdom of Danielle and the other women who are there any given week.

- Sheree

 

Talking with others in a safe space can help us to put our own problems into perspective, and to keep our focus firmly on the path ahead.

Mindset

Management

Separation, divorce and dealing with a high-conflict ex goes hand-in-hand with personal development and post-traumatic growth.

You may feel as though you are living in a fog, and wondering if it will ever lift. Wondering, and worrying, about what the future holds. It may feel as though what is happening in your life is completely out of of your control…

If you’re struggling with confusion, indecision, self-doubt, and overwhelming thoughts… the solution must include support with your Mindset.

Danielle uses tools similar to those of various Behaviour Therapies to help you understand and manage your mind - a skill that is integral to your journey through high-conflict separation and divorce, and also to moving forward in creating a life you love.

Mindset management isn’t just beneficial for you. If you have children, your ability to manage your mind has a direct impact on your parenting and your ability to show up for your children in the ways that you want to, along with helping them to transition and navigate a reality that they didn’t ask for.

Your mindset also has the potential to significantly impact your outcome in Court.

The struggles are very real when you are navigating high-conflict separation and divorce whilst also trying to be the best parent you can be. As a mum to four children, Danielle gets it.

If you’re ready for strategies that can help, you’ve found them.

You’re on the right path.

Trauma Support

Like most adults, you are likely carrying trauma within you…an uninvited guest that can harm all aspects of your being.

Trauma is not isolated to the events you have experienced, rather it is what happened inside you as a result of those events. And, if you’re experiencing post-separation abuse, you are likely continuing to be traumatised.

Trauma also has the potential to affect every system in your body, including your ability to regulate your emotions.

If you’re struggling with recurring stress, insomnia, racing thoughts, feelings of shame and maybe even persistent health issues…the solution must include trauma support.

Danielle gently and holistically supports clients to understand their trauma at their own pace, and learn to soothe their nervous system along the way, using a range tools underpinned by her knowledge in the neurobiology of trauma and her vast experience and wisdom gained from her many years as a women’s health coach and educator.

Understanding trauma and how your nervous system functions isn’t just beneficial for you. If you have children, your ability to both understand and manage your own stress and trauma in a healthy way can have a profoundly positive impact on your parenting, and on your ability to support your children.

If you have children, they need you now more than ever.

Your understanding of your own trauma also has the potential to impact your outcome in Court.

Your trauma is not your fault, but you are the only one who can do anything about it. This can be challenging if you are regularly communicating with the one person who has caused you a significant amount of harm…

…trying to heal in the same environment that made you sick.

You don’t need to struggle alone.

You are not broken, and you are not to blame. If you’re ready to start feeling better, take my hand.

You’re stronger than you know.

Practical Resources

One thing that is common with separating from, and co-parenting with, a controlling person is the stress and overwhelm that repeatedly washes over you, eroding your confidence in your own judgement and decision making.

Danielle provides coaching clients with practical resources and the ability to communicate directly with her and other group members 24/7 in the signature Stronger Braver Together Community.

The Membership features an exclusive app full of information and resources and is a world first - specifically dedicated to supporting women who are navigating separation, divorce and/or co-parenting with a controlling person, who may also have personality traits consistent with one or more personality disorders.

Resources, information and tools are great - but having them online in a secure and password-protected app, that you can access any time of the day or night is the ultimate in support.

Danielle is particularly passionate about supporting clients’ understanding of the basic psychology of their controlling partners and former partners, including the many subtle (and not so subtle) ways in which family violence and post-separation abuse can and does occur, and how to best document it. This often includes helping clients to build upon their understanding of the factors that underpin their ex-partners use of abusive behaviour.

If you want 24/7 access to a community of other amazing women, along with a growing line-up of exclusive knowledge, tips and resources that will support you in-between coaching sessions and beyond, and will help you to become an expert in your own experience of abuse, trauma, high-conflict divorce, co-parenting and your unique healing journey, you need this.

You’ve got this, and I’ve got you.
