At Transforming Conflict LLC, the goal is to help you attack the source of the conflict, not each other. Studies demonstrate that parties who are active and feel empowered in resolving their conflict do better emotionally, financially and legally than those who delegate responsibility to the courts.
I provide divorce, adoption, eldercare, family business and other family-related mediation services through a proven problem-solving process.
Modifications: As the circumstances of parents and children change, the parties may need to revisit their parenting agreements or arrangements for child support or maintenance. These circumstances may include change in employment and earning power, transition from stay-at-home to full-time employment, and more.
Relocations: Mediation gives the parents an opportunity to express their feelings about the proposed move as they consider alternatives or work out ways to mitigate the child's loss of contact with his or her parent.
Other post-divorce issues: Mediation can help parents address many other post-divorce issues, including: differences in child-rearing practices, competing needs for boundaries, concern about the other parent's new partner, and the difficulties of adjusting to being part of a new blended "step"-family.
