Hi I'm Dr. Jenine,
a licensed therapist and breakup and divorce coach. My passion for helping women heal from the trauma of breakups stems not only from my professional experience but also from my personal journey. I’ve been through a divorce myself, and I know firsthand how devastating the end of a relationship can be. But I also know that healing is possible—and even more than that, it’s possible to find true happiness and love again. Today, I’m happily married to the love of my life, and I credit that not only to time but to the very techniques I now teach my clients. After my divorce, I went through a deep process of self-discovery, understanding the emotional stages of development, and learning what I truly needed in a partner. I set strong boundaries, let go of anger, resentment, and bitterness, and embraced a mindset of self-love and self-compassion. These principles helped me rebuild my life, and they can help you, too.
What I Offer:
In my coaching, I combine my years of experience as a therapist with the insights I gained through my personal healing journey. Here’s what I offer:
- Understanding Emotional Stages: One of the key aspects of my coaching is helping clients understand both their own emotional development and that of their ex-partners. I teach about the four emotional stages of development—infantile adult, childish adult, adolescent adult, and mature adult—so my clients can gain clarity on why their relationships ended and what they need to look for in future relationships. This understanding was crucial for me in finding my current partner.

What I Offer:
- Healing and Growth: My coaching goes beyond surface-level healing. I guide my clients through the steps I took myself, from releasing anger and resentment to building self-love and self-compassion. These elements are essential for true emotional recovery and for moving forward with confidence.
- Setting Healthy Boundaries: After my divorce, learning to set and maintain boundaries was a game-changer for me. Now, I help my clients do the same, so they can protect their emotional health and cultivate healthier, more fulfilling relationships in the future.
- Self-Awareness and Empowerment: One of the most valuable tools I discovered during my own journey was the power of self-awareness. By understanding what I truly wanted out of a relationship and aligning that with my emotional needs, I was able to attract the right partner. Through my coaching, I help women reconnect with their inner strength and rediscover their own desires, guiding them toward empowerment and self-belief.

Why It Works:
My approach is deeply rooted in both professional expertise and lived experience. As a trained professional, I provide practical tools for emotional healing, but my own story adds a layer of relatability and hope. I’ve been where my clients are, and I’ve come out stronger on the other side.
I also integrate teachings from my book, Bold and Unbreakable Black Girl’s Soul Workbook. While it wasn’t originally designed for breakup recovery, the chapters on self-awareness and emotional development have proven instrumental in helping my clients (and myself) heal. By understanding emotional stages, creating better boundaries, and learning to let go of resentment and anger, my clients not only heal but also become more discerning and empowered in choosing future partners.
I truly believe that breakups can be an opportunity for growth and transformation. With the right guidance, you can move beyond heartbreak and find happiness again, just as I did.
If you’re ready to heal and reclaim your power, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

Features:
This workbook was designed with black women and girls in mind to aid you and help you succeed in your life. My goal is to give you information that will help you examine your life and evaluate your choices so you can be a healthier and happier human being. As we all know, the experiences of Black females are unique and challenging, and over the years, it has been a part of our culture not to show weakness or discuss our state of mind. The word unbreakable does not imply that Black women should always be emotionally strong or hold back their emotions, as some suggest when speaking of the Strong Black Woman Schema. Your Boldness and your ability to be Unbreakable are the cornerstones of your self-empowerment! It's rooted in our rich history of all the beautiful women who have come before us, our ancestors. This book takes a look at self-empowerment and walks you through the steps of healing by:
- Asking you to attempt to start to let go of things that don't serve you in a positive light
- Affirming your unique gifts and focusing on being grateful for what you have as opposed to what you don't have
- Giving yourself grace and not allowing any of your challenges in life to define you
- Allowing yourself to manifest your destiny by dreaming and putting in the action to do big things
- Setting boundaries by avoiding people-pleasing behaviors and having the confidence to say no, when necessary
- Developing a positive mindset by not worrying about what others think of you and staying laser-focused on your goals.
