A.L.D., Patient
Dr. C. came into my life towards the middle of my stay in trauma treatment…I was a cold, shut down, suicidal, traumatized, petrified shell of a person. My life had been turned upside down by a series of traumatic events. Dr. C, despite my coldness and paranoia, didn’t blink an eye. I sensed from the beginning that she wanted to understand me and my story and this is what I had been looking for without knowing it for a very long time.
Through the 3.5 years I’ve been working with Dr. C, she has taught me how to look within, to learn about myself and find answers I had been searching for externally my entire life. She challenged me when that was necessary and still does, she showed me love by being consistent, honest, and looking out for my best interest (something no one had ever done in my entire life).
If you’ve ever been in hell and you want to get through and out, Dr. C will descend to the hell you’re into and guide you out safely. Partner that with her brilliance, steadfastness, experience, and profound soul and she’s just pure magic.
In summation, if God hadn’t brought her into my life I know without doubt I would be dead and my daughter would be motherless.
Dr. Coughlin saved my life.

I strongly endorse and recommend without any reservation Dr. Wendy Coughlin who I have both personally and professionally for many years. Dr. Coughlin has worked with my Clients in both Collaborative Divorce settings and Traditional Litigation settings, and her assistance and guidance is always instrumental in helping both myself and my Clients navigate the ups and downs and many challenges of the divorce process.
I have also seen Dr. Coughlin work what I would consider miracles with clients who are dealing with substance abuse and other addictive behaviors. I have seen Dr. Coughlin develop a close connection and bond with my Clients, who will then not only listen to Dr. Coughlin’s advice but actually follow her advice because they trust her. I cannot give Dr. Coughlin enough credit for assisting me in dealing with high conflict circumstances and Clients who need someone they can trust.

Dr. Wendy Coughlin has been a valuable resource for me, both in my former work as a juvenile judge and now as a guardian ad Litem for children in divorce and paternity cases. Her expertise in the effects of child abuse—physical and mental—when combined with her deep knowledge of addiction in all its forms and consequences make her unequaled in our county as an expert witness, a therapist, a parent coordinator or a guardian ad litem. I utilize her as often as I can get her.
