About Prudence

Prudence Henschke is a CDC Certified Divorce Coach and former Accredited Family Law Specialist based on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia. With more than 20 years in family law — practicing in London, Adelaide, and Melbourne, and founding her own family law firm — she brings a rare blend of legal expertise and coaching skill to the divorce process.

She began divorce coaching in 2018 after seeing that her legal clients needed more than a lawyer could offer: practical guidance, emotional steadiness, and a clear map through an overwhelming process. In 2022, she relocated to the Sunshine Coast and shifted her focus exclusively to coaching.

Prudence works one-on-one with people navigating separation and divorce, helping them understand their options, prepare for key moments like mediation or lawyer meetings, and make clear-headed decisions amid emotional chaos. Her approach is calm and strategic — she keeps clients focused on outcomes while making space for what they're carrying.

What Clients Say
★★★★★
"It was by chance that I came across Prudence, and I'm so glad I did. Before that, I was going from one law firm to another, feeling like I was losing everything and getting bad advice. It often felt like people assumed I was the one at fault, and that men can't be victims, which made things even harder. Prudence helped change that. She gave me practical information, useful documents about how the process works, and even recommended people who helped get my divorce finalised quickly. What made the biggest difference was her empathy. She understood what I was going through and helped me cut through the emotional chaos."
Client
★★★★★
"I felt overwhelmed after separating with my husband, especially being a foreigner in Australia and not being overly familiar with Australian Family Law. Working with Prudence helped me to develop a strategy, and to start chipping away at the process. Coaching made the divorce process less daunting and easier to create and forge a path forward. Without Prudence's coaching, I believe the outcome of my situation would have been less beneficial."
Client
★★★★★
"I would like to thank Prudence for her assistance throughout the past two years following a sudden unexpected separation and then divorce. She listened and made sense of my fears and helped guide a pathway for me to navigate both my personal recovery towards independence and how to make sense of the legal requirements. I felt safe enough to discuss my family violence experiences with her for the first time and how that might affect my case. Being able to ask questions prior to meetings with my lawyer meant I saved money overall."
Client
★★★★★
"I first spoke with Prue feeling very daunted, overwhelmed and not really understanding the process of financial settlement and divorce. She was able to talk through the different stages, what things to consider when, and also normalising the feelings I was experiencing. I don't regret a moment of engaging a divorce coach to support me through such an emotional and difficult time. I can now stand on the other side and feel empowered, knowledgeable and have all the tools at hand to feel prepared for negotiations."
Nicole
★★★★★
"I knew very little about the divorce process. Having a real person educating me took a lot of the fear away. I was being threatened constantly and becoming more educated gave me some power back to make better decisions along the way."
Client
★★★★★
"Prior to working with Prudence, I was feeling very stressed and overwhelmed by the process. I didn't know where to begin. Prudence provided me with support to a clear pathway to navigate through this difficult process. I am so thankful to have engaged in her services."
Client
★★★★★
"Thank you again for the session today. You facilitated such a clear, frank discussion about a matter that is often fraught with emotion. You supported me to invite the logical, reasonable, wise part of myself to make a clear decision. I also appreciate your non-judgmental approach and your helpful suggestions to support me, moving forward."
Laura
★★★★★
"I think the most tangible benefit of coaching with Prudence was the encouragement and advice I received around the legal process that helped me not to get sucked into the 'divorce vortex' and to enable me to negotiate a settlement out of court and with little interference from lawyers. Because of the coaching I believe I've saved thousands of dollars and so much time in legal fees. Prudence showed the right amount of empathy but also could give me the hard advice that I needed to hear at times. SO HELPFUL!!"
Client
★★★★★
"I found Prue on a random internet search, at a time when I was feeling very confused and alone and overwhelmed with the whole separation process. During the introductory call, I immediately felt at ease with Prue's communication style, which was warm, professional and I could feel her passion for providing great quality of support. Prue always had this amazing ability to take all the information I gave her about every situation, and zoom out, and then distil it down to its essential components and focus on solutions to move forward. Her warmth and compassion during the sessions was very validating and supportive."
Client
★★★★★
"Prue was very professional, knowledgeable, compassionate and thoughtful from beginning to end. She was thorough, supportive and diplomatic. I appreciated her flexibility and assistance at such a delicate time. I definitely recommend Prue's Coaching Services."
