Divorce Coaching in Peoria County and Tazewell County, Illinois

If you’re facing divorce anywhere in Peoria, Morton, Washington, East Peoria, Pekin, or the surrounding communities, you don’t have to figure it out alone. As a CDC Certified Divorce Coach based right here in Tazewell County, I work with clients across both Peoria and Tazewell Counties, and I understand the specific court systems, local resources, and community dynamics that shape divorce in Central Illinois.

Divorce doesn’t happen in a vacuum, and it doesn’t look the same everywhere. Peoria County Circuit Court and Tazewell County Circuit Court are two different courts, with different judges, different local practices, and different timelines. Having a coach who knows those differences, and who has worked alongside local attorneys and mediators in both counties, means you get guidance grounded in how things actually work here, not generic advice pulled from a national playbook.

In a close-knit community like Morton or Washington, privacy and reputation often weigh heavily on how someone navigates their divorce. In Peoria, clients are more often balancing the process with demanding careers, blended family logistics, or high-asset considerations. I bring the right lens to each, because I know this region, not just the law on paper.

I work with clients throughout Peoria County and Tazewell County, including:

Peoria
Morton
Washington
East Peoria
Pekin
Dunlap
Germantown Hills
Creve Coeur

"I am so grateful I choose to work with Katie. From the start, Katie was kind and professional, empathetic and helpful. With her knowledge and guidance, it gave me the confidence to work with my ex as we navigated the ending of our marriage. It was extremely important to us both that the process remain amicable. With Katie guiding me, we were able to achieve a quick, minimum cost divorce. Her understanding and non-judgment bolstered me in ways I cannot begin to explain in a small review."

When is the best time to work with a Divorce Coach?

Whether you’re just starting to consider divorce or you’re already in the middle of the process, having someone in your corner who knows this community can make all the difference. I offer sessions in person or by phone across Peoria and Tazewell Counties.

When my mind and heart were spiraling, Katie listened and then kept me focused. She guided me with great interview questions toward wonderful attorneys so I could choose the best fit for me. I am certain that Katie’s guidance and keeping me focused saved me thousands of dollars! By having a divorce coach, I felt less alone in the bewildering world of divorce. I highly recommend Katie as she saved me money, gave me peace, kept me focused, and educated me on this unfamiliar life experience.

I highly recommend working with Katie. I couldn't have navigated such a difficult time without her support. She helped me find a knowledgeable lawyer, checked in frequently, answered my questions, offered thoughtful ideas, and shared valuable resources. It felt like I was going through my divorce with a caring friend who truly understands the process. Thank you, Katie—I'm forever grateful.

Katie was great to work with. She provided so much support, especially in the early days of my separation when I felt overwhelmed and didn’t know what to do. She’s checked in with me consistently throughout the entire process, even when I didn’t have any specific questions or needs. It was so helpful to know she had my back and could give me solid advice anytime!
