Meet Your Coach
Karen Yurack has been a dedicated family law paralegal for more than 18 years, specializing in complex litigation. She brings a strong academic foundation to her work, holding degrees in Human Services and Psychology from Elon University and Peace University.
Karen is a DCA® Certified ADR Divorce Coach.
"Coaching is a future-focused, goal-oriented, and non-therapeutic process."
Conflict is going to happen, but how you deal with the conflict is solely up to you.
From my 18+ years of being a family law paralegal, and going through my own divorce many years ago, I understand the variety of obstacles divorce can put in someone’s path. I have also witnessed divorces with compassion, respect, healthy co-parenting relationships, financial support, and compromise. A more effective and less destructive way to dissolve a marriage.
White Oak Divorce Coaching provides you with guidance so you can show up being educated, prepared, and emotionally ready for the divorce process. All while making sure your goals and personal values are at the forefront of important decisions you are now forced to make.
I was fortunate enough to grow up surrounded by white oak trees. The oak trees in my front yard showed my younger self peace, protection, and strength. Under those trees I imagined my future and believed anything was possible. Along with the trees in my yard, my parents stood as my unwavering oak trees, providing me the support, encouragement, and love that guided me to become a compassionate individual, paralegal, and coach.
As I traveled through my own divorce years ago, I depended greatly on all of my oak trees to guide me through a situation that was completely foreign to me. And again, as I built a new life with a blended family, I found strength in those same trees.
White Oak Divorce Coaching was created as I too, want to provide my clients support, encouragement, and guidance as they process through their own divorce and the creation of their new life, just as my oak trees did for me.
