Everyone is feeling the effects of our current economic downturn. Making the decision to divorce, or being told by your spouse they want a divorce is even more difficult and stressful during tough times. It can be frightening and anxiety provoking. When faced with a divorce most people go to an attorney. And in certain situations that is what is called for. But there is another way. Many couples want to avoid hiring an attorney but when they start to argue about issues they feel there is no other choice. That is where divorce mediation can help. A divorce or family mediator is someone who is impartial and helps both parties reach an agreement. In my case, I also happen to be a family therapist with sixteen years of experience helping couples and families. I bring that knowledge and experience to the table in the mediation process. Not only am I helping you come to resolution in a constructive way, I also take the long view in terms of what will help your particular family.

There is a better, more economical way to get divorced. Most people just don’t know they have another option.
