    About Me

    Hi, I am Reneé, the Founder of The Custody Blueprint® Program.

    This is the battle of your life.

    Every step needs to be navigated very carefully.

    I help parents in a custody battle against a narcissistic co-parent to go into family court and get the custody arrangement that’s best for their kids. With a long and winding, combined career path of being a teacher, administrator, entrepreneur, strategist, coach and instructional designer, I have spent a lot of time successfully learning to zero in on how to transform situations into a new reality that brings peace to people’s lives and helps them achieve what they are setting out to do.

    It was my own custody battle, after escaping a mentally abusive relationship, that transformed my life’s direction. Winning custody of my son taught me something profound: success in court demands a careful blend of Strategy, Mindset, and Evidence—even when facing a barrage of lies and manipulation. Through The Custody Blueprint® tools and programs, I now guide others through the emotional maze of custody battles, addressing the shame, guilt, and helplessness that so many experience. My approach is built on using truth, evidence and virtue as your strongest allies in court.

    • The court will only hear one story
    — make sure it’s yours.

    Most parents walk into court unprepared and risk:

    • Being discredited by an abusive co-parent’s lies
    • Losing precious time with their children
    • Watching the court hand more power to their abuser

    There’s a Better Way Forward.

    EVIDENCE

    undeniable proof,
    clearly organized

    STRATEGY

    A step-by-step plan
    for your case

    MINDSET

    Calm, credible, confident
    presence in court

    Every hearing is a turning point.
    Make sure it turns in your favor.

    Here is the reality:

    Custody battles are tough
    but you don’t have to face them unprepared.

    Every court appearance, every negotiation, and even every email exchange can influence the outcome of your custody arrangement.

    Preparation is your strongest advantage.

    If this feels familiar,
    you’re not alone:

    You’re exhausted by the constant intimidation and hostile messages from your co-parent.

    You worry your children are being pulled into the conflict.

    You feel uncertain about how to plan the right strategy with your lawyer and judge.

    You just want to protect your kids and regain control of your life.

    That’s why The Custody Blueprint® exists — to give you step-by-step strategies, tools, and confidence so you can walk into every hearing and negotiation fully prepared.

    Does this sound like you?

    The abuser’s playbook is to accuse the protective parent of mental instability, mental illnesses, “parental alienation”, and maybe even the very abuse they themselves perpetrate.  It’s time to learn how to not appear in a way that fulfills their narrative of you, and how to show the court who your ex is–behind closed doors.

    Is your lawyer winging it? Do you feel lost in the family court process with no clear strategy? A strong case strategy is crucial in custody cases involving narcissistic or abusive ex-partners. Don’t settle for uncertainty. Learn how to partner strongly with your lawyer so your case moves in the right direction.

    Is your abuser weaponizing the court system? Constant hearings and motions can drain your finances and emotional energy, keeping you trapped in conflict. Protect your children and your peace. Learn how to navigate the system strategically and fight for the stability you deserve.

    Post-separation abuse has become your co-parent’s new mission in life. Yet the court just sees this as an emotional parent simply missing their children and being affected by the case–whereas you know your ex is truly this way.

    Whenever your children return from your co-parent’s house, they are dysregulated and their behavior is not like them. And often they don’t want to go visit with the abusive parent…which then gets blamed on you.

    Whether it’s the guardian ad litem (GAL) or a parent coordinator, it doesn’t seem to matter–they’re all impressed by your controlling parent’s “sincerity.”  And it seems like everything you say just sounds like pettiness in their eyes.

    ARE YOU READY?

    Get control of your life and transform your custody case.

      helped me understand what the court officials really needed to see.
      M.M.

      with text messages, videos and the video call spreadsheet.
      P.H.

    • Hooray!!! My custody case is officially, finally OVER!
      I was awarded “tie-breaking authority” for medical, education
      and mental health decisions!
      That was the biggest “win” I was fighting for.

    • I just wanted to extend my gratitude.
      I still have much to work on but I feel like on a game board
      my character jumped halfway through this battle on that board,
      with more knowledge, confidence and control,
      and ready to be that warrior for myself and my beautiful daughter.
      Thank you forever!
      L.E.
    • I wanted to let you know that we had trial in October for divorce.
      I got everything I wanted and the judge saw through every game
      that my ex tried to play during trial!!
      He did his best to paint me as manipulative, controlling, an alcoholic, etc.
      and the judge didn’t believe any of it
      and called it all out in her findings. I am elated!

      I know this was in large part due to YOU for all of the templates
      and guidance you offered during our individual sessions together!!
      T.B.
    • Renee, your program is genius.
      I have had some RICH, HEALING experiences because of your program,
      and because of Achara in tandem with my other therapists.
      The shroud of doom is starting to clear,
      and with that comes some acceptance, power, gratitude, and clarity.
      J.W.
    • Your advocacy and relentless efforts to help other moms
      to get through the most challenging time of their lives
      is really admirable and it has been one of the most rewarding
      and inspirational experiences of my life.
      C.P. (Staff Member)

    Conquer Your Case

    Volume of evidence isn’t what wins–having a lot of evidence just means you need to narrow it down to your main concerns and then carefully select what matters to the court.  We can help with that.

    Having evidence and mindset in place isn’t enough without a solid, powerhouse strategy to ensure each step of your case is going in the right direction. We help you plan so that you aren’t scrambling whenever your ex tries to manipulate the system.

    Understanding how to tell your story, overcoming anxiety, and showing up disproving your co-parent’s false narrative about you–that’s key.  We carefully assess how you need to show up, based on your specific case.

    “The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any.”
