I'M AMY TOURTE, A PSYCHOLOGY-INFORMED COLLABORATIVE MEDIATOR TRANSFORMING HOW FAMILIES NAVIGATE SEPARATION
My practice emerges from a unique combination of 15 years of systematic problem-solving and strategic thinking in technology leadership, advanced training in collaborative mediation, and co-active coaching principles. This diverse professional foundation enables me to approach family transitions with both analytical rigor and deep emotional intelligence.
Completing graduate work in Counseling Psychology alongside my collaborative mediation certification, I bring a sophisticated understanding of both individual psychology and family systems dynamics to this work. My technology background provides the structural thinking needed to create comprehensive, sustainable agreements, while my psychology training ensures every family receives trauma-informed, attachment-aware support.
Having navigated my own conscious separation while developing evidence-based methodologies for family transformation, I bring both professional expertise and authentic understanding to this deeply personal work. I'm here for families who refuse to settle for adversarial processes when healing and growth are possible.
MY APPROACH
What distinguishes my practice is the integration of psychology and trauma-informed principles with collaborative mediation frameworks. I provide comprehensive support from initial assessment through final co-parenting agreements, ensuring families have the psychological safety and structured guidance needed to make decisions from wisdom rather than crisis.
My evidence-based methodology draws from attachment science, family systems theory, and somatic awareness to help families understand the deeper patterns that shape their dynamics. Rather than simply negotiating terms, we address underlying needs and create new frameworks for cooperation that serve not just the immediate transition but long-term generational wellbeing.
This approach recognizes that lasting agreements require both emotional healing and strategic planning—transforming what could be a destructive process into an opportunity for conscious growth and authentic family evolution.
WHY THIS APPROACH WORKS
The research on collaborative divorce is compelling—over 115 peer-reviewed studies demonstrate that families using collaborative approaches show 85-90% rates of healthy adjustment, while children in high-conflict adversarial divorces develop PTSD-like symptoms 46% of the time. Neuroscience reveals that collaborative mediation literally protects developing brains and reduces family stress hormones by 40%, preventing the epigenetic changes that transmit trauma across generations.
What began as evidence-based research has been validated through real-world application with families navigating separation. This systematic framework combines attachment science, family systems theory, and collaborative conflict resolution principles to create measurable positive outcomes for both immediate family wellbeing and long-term generational health.
This approach works with your family's natural capacity for healing and growth rather than against it, using psychology-informed techniques like trauma-aware dialogue protocols, somatic regulation practices, and collaborative problem-solving methods to support conscious evolution into sustainable new family structures. It's transformation grounded in science, validated through practice, and designed for families who refuse to choose between intellectual rigor and authentic healing.
