Hi, I’m ANDREW GRIFFES.
I love being a dad. Several years ago, I went through a divorce. As hard as it was at times, I was fortunate to have the support and inspiration of some amazing people.
My professional background in psychology and leadership development gave me an opportunity to field-test what I’d learned. I founded RE/DO Academy to share what I’d found worked best in support of other dads in coming through with a hopeful outlook and skills to build a post-divorce life that you love, and that you’re proud to offer your kids.
What Went Into It (aka. Education & Training)
MA in Mindfulness-Based Psychology, Naropa University
Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy - The PACT Institute with Stan Tatkin, PsyD, MFT
Somatic Trauma Training - Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Institute
I love geeking out on finding you the best tools here to navigate through the challenges, simplify the process, and set yourself and your kids up for health and happiness for years to come.
My Approach
RE/DO Academy is a convergence of years of training in psychology and couples work, insights from other parents who’ve built happy lives post-divorce, and lessons learned from coaching business & non-profit leaders to run mission-driven organizations.
It’s equal parts neuroscience and traditional practice, with a bit of “rub some dirt in it” dad medicine mixed in for flavor.
New Stuff
Modern psychology and neuroscience has a lot to tell us about relationship, parenting, and building meaningful lives. Additionally, technology makes it easy for us to connect
Old Stuff
For millennia, people have studied the human experience with amazing refinement. Now we have access to these time-tested practices for training our attention, meeting our emotions and our kids’ emotions, and making choices from the integrated intelligence of body, mind, and heart.
