“Roberta’s approach to conflict resolution is collaborative and respectful. It is clear that her advice and recommendations are based on solid evidence and rich experience. She is kind always, but when the situation merits it, she can be just tough enough to get the job done. During a difficult time, she helped us find common ground and forge a path forward for our son and family.”

“The work with EBG was fundamental to our daughter transitioning from our separation to divorce. It was hard to understand at the time, because we were experiencing intense conflict and it seemed hopeless. But, Roberta's years of experience, data-driven approach and fair mediation was fundamental to de-escalating our situation, making us both feel heard and focusing on our daughter’s emotional health. As we look back, our work with EBG was the most important decision we made in learning to be co-parents and to work through the injuries and anger. It was time and money better spent than in court or on other relationship-damaging approaches. I can’t recommend EBG enough, it saved our family, and most important, our daughter.”

“Roberta and Carly supported our family in crisis following our separation and I cannot recommend them more to families in transition as critical partners who provide sobering perspective into our childrens' needs during a delicate period. From validating pain points and helping us develop a strong plan to put our young children first to normalizing divorce and future transitions for them over the following years, they have a unique superpower that is unmatched. Working with them was one of the most important decisions I made on my journey in acknowledging, accepting, healing and growing from the divorce experience.”

“As a child of multiple divorces, the last place I wanted to put my own son was in the middle of one. But in electing to separate, I met with Roberta to check my thinking, develop a new and positive normal, and focus my energy on what I could control instead of wasting time and creating stress trying to understand or control that which I could not.

My former spouse is not always predictable, linear, nor logical. Roberta gave me the tools and perspective to help parent a child that would learn to have two very different parents, homes, and lifestyles. Indeed he would, now years later, come to excel in the differences of his normal rather than bemoan the complexities of such a reality.

Further, Roberta helped me understand that divorce is not a negative. Not a loss. It’s a choice. And, when done well, with lots of room, not to mention emotional and financial generosity, can immensely benefit some, if not all, parties involved. There is no question that I am a better parent, more involved with and closer to my son because I chose the solution my divorce provided. Roberta provided philosophic principles that helped guide the way to see, not only the wisdom of such a difficult choice, but it’s beneficial pragmatism.”

“Relationships can be incredibly difficult to manage on your own. I learned this early on when I met my now husband and his two grown children. Roberta has been a valued resource for us both for the last seven years. We were originally introduced to Roberta through an attorney in an effort to facilitate the difficult communications regarding a prenuptial agreement. As a neutral third party, she helped us see the agreement from each other's perspectives and land in a space where we both felt comfortable.

Navigating through the aftermath of my husband's divorce, trying to integrate myself into their family and learn how to live with, grow with, and love two children that were not my own was emotionally difficult. Roberta not only helped me through this new normal, but also helped me find myself again. Together we discovered aspects of my new life that would make me even stronger. She helped me acknowledge my feelings, understand where they were coming from, and then taught me how to embrace them, or in some cases, retrain them. Roberta has easily become one of my most trusted and invaluable persons in my life. In addition, she's helped my stepson through his own challenges in accepting this new family. She is a natural and I highly recommend her.”
