About Suzanne
I’m Suzanne Winlove-Smith, an accredited Family Mediator, Relationship & Divorce Coach. I started The Clean Divorce when I came to realize how few resources were available to those going through relationship breakdown. When I was immersed in the experience of my own divorce, I saw how important it was to create a new way forward.
Working with couples in numerous court systems in Eastern Ontario equipped me with extensive skills in divorce support, counselling, and mediation. My experience with my own divorce gave me invaluable insight that has further inspired me to create simple and empowering solutions for individuals facing their own relationship challenges. I am also the former President of the Ottawa Chapter of the OAFM.

Divorce isn't the end of your story.
After navigating my own challenging divorce, I wrote New Beginnings: A 21-Day Journal to guide you through daily reflections designed to help you process your emotions, gain clarity, and begin rebuilding your life with intention. It will help you through some of the most difficult and overwhelming moments of the divorce journey.
Begin with the first chapters for free and discover a way to approach divorce that helps you move forward feeling stronger, wiser, and ready for what comes next.
Suzanne helped me and my Ex transform our relationship from a highly charged emotional battle to a collaborative, co-parenting, supportive relationship. Her patient demeanour and tremendous skills changed everything. I am very thankful for her help.
