YOUR MCKENZIE FRIEND

A friend when you
need it most

For some people, going through divorce can also mean representing themselves in the Family Court. If that’s your situation, Jennie offers support in the role of a Professional McKenzie Friend, bringing the same calm, thoughtful approach that underpins her divorce coaching work.

McKenzie Friends are recognised in the Family Courts of England and Wales and exist to support those acting as Litigants in Person. Jennie can be alongside you before applications are made, help you prepare for hearings, follow court directions, and attend hearings with you, so you’re not facing the process alone.

This support focuses on enabling you to feel steadier and more prepared at each stage. It may include talking things through in advance, organising paperwork and court bundles, preparing for hearings, taking notes in court, and offering a grounded presence throughout proceedings.

While a McKenzie Friend cannot speak on your behalf, this role provides a lawyer free alternative that reduces overwhelm and assists you through the legal process with greater support, understanding, and care, especially during an emotionally demanding time.

If you’re unsure which type of support is right for you, we can explore this together and find the approach that best fits where you are right now.

Testimonials

My wife of 35 years decided just before the first COVID-19 lockdown that we should separate. That lead to a very difficult year as I tried to adjust to a life apart. Before my coaching with Jennie, I was struggling to make sense of my life and how I was going to move on. Having Jennie's coaching and guidance was very helpful in giving me new ways of coping and a sense of direction. Now four months later thankfully I am in a much better place. I am very happy to endorse Jennie and her coaching.

Alan White, 58

I’m so grateful for my coaching time with Jennie. Prior to working with her, I was at a very low place, emotionally; and I had spent a great deal of time wading through the same negative and overwhelming emotions. Jennie listened very attentively and sincerely. I felt “heard” for the first time in a very long time. I knew, wholeheartedly, that she wanted to help me to be able to help myself. She was remarkably patient as she worked with me, and she was willing to continually encourage me to implement new strategies to help facilitate my own process of beginning to heal emotionally. After coaching with her, I felt as if I had the courage to step out of my comfort zone and vacation with a friend who I’ve known since childhood.

Beth Stokes, 47

I cannot recommend Jennie highly enough for all the help and advice she has given throughout a very stressful process of family court. She provided lots of much-needed help in drafting excellent Position Statements with me so that I was heard during the process. Her medical background and professional approach were really helpful. She gave lots of helpful advice when I had no idea where to turn to. Jennie was always a phone call away if I needed her at any time. I would recommend Jennie to anyone looking for a McKenzie Friend.

Amanda G, 45

Before my Child Arrangement Order, I thought help wasn’t available. Then Jennie became my McKenzie Friend. Jennie is so loving and caring, she actually gave me the strength to put the interests of our son first. Thank you

Emma O, Carlisle

Jen has supported me through the process of preparing my documents and applications to apply for a Child Arrangements Order as a grandparent applying for contact with my grandchildren. Jen has also supported me in Court too. Her prompt and punctual replies with draft documents has filled me with confidence. I feel that without Jen I wouldn’t have been prepared for Court in time. Jen is professional and supportive whilst always approachable too.

Christine R, Barnard Castle

Jennie has been so helpful, so kind and generous as my divorce coach. She has helped me so much when I was struggling to see what to do. I am so grateful. Jennie has given me my self-belief back that I have not felt for such a longtime. Jennie is a wonderful human being. Thank you

Barbara L, London

I got in touch with Jennie because I was starting to flounder in my divorce journey. Initially certain about my decision, things were becoming more and more difficult. I was losing my resilience and beginning to feel exhausted with it all. Jennie talked through the situation with me and helped me identify what was going on. We worked on strategies to keep my strength up in challenging times, practical ways to deal with co-parenting and most importantly, developed a new focus for my future. Jennie’s coaching has made a huge difference in my daily life. I feel stronger and more confident about getting to the other side of this. Thanks Jennie!

Nicola P, Cambridge

As my McKenzie Friend, Jen has supported my application as a Grandmother for a Child Arrangements Order from start to finish. Providing her expertise, guidance and support with each form to apply to the Family Court, and responding to reports I have been fully empowered from a strengths based approach. Jen has always listened to my wishes, views and feelings whilst ensuring all work completed was in a child focused manner. I was fortunate to have Jen by my side in Court and this physical and emotional support was very positive. I cannot thank Jen enough for all of her help which has always been professional, to a high standard and her prompt replies gave continuous reassurance.
