ABOUT ME

Tracy Callahan, MA
FL Supreme Court Certified Family Mediator
Trained Parenting Coordinator
DCA® Certified ADR Divorce Coach
Divorce Expert and Bestselling Author

I am a family dispute resolution specialist with more than sixteen years of experience working with parents and families navigating separation, divorce, and co-parenting transitions. My work is grounded in the principles of alternative dispute resolution and focuses on helping families reduce conflict, improve communication, and establish sustainable agreements that support long-term stability for both parents and children.

I am a Supreme Court Certified Family Mediator, Certified ADR Divorce Coach, and trained Parenting Coordinator. I work with parents across the full continuum of family dispute resolution, including mediation preparation, active mediation support, and post-agreement implementation. My role is to help parents move out of reactive conflict and into clear, child-centered decision-making, strengthening their ability to resolve disputes constructively and fulfill their ongoing parenting responsibilities.

I am also the co-founder of Divorce Coaches Academy® (DCA®), a professional training institute dedicated to advancing divorce coaching as an ADR-aligned discipline that strengthens mediation and family resolution processes. Through this work, I have helped establish professional standards and training frameworks that support ethical, client-centered dispute-resolution practice.

I earned both my undergraduate and graduate degrees from New York University, where I later served as an adjunct professor. I am a frequent speaker, educator, and author on family mediation, divorce coaching, and interdisciplinary dispute resolution, and I am a contributing author to the bestselling book Divorce: Taking the High Road: Simple Strategies for Creating a Healthy Divorce.

Through Mediating-Matters, I work directly with families, spouses, and co-parents as a mediator, parenting coordinator, and divorce coach, helping families move from conflict toward clarity, stability, and durable resolution.
