Mediation To Stay Married?


Mediation to stay married?
When reconciliation isn’t working, the next step might be to consider an informal or ‘therapeutic’ separation, especially in cases where the couple is under tremendous tension and conflict, or when there is an issue of substance abuse.
A therapeutic separation is an intentional, planned, and pre-determined period of time when a couple chooses to live separately in order to accomplish certain goals.
Keep in mind that this type of separation is different from a legal separation.

Colorado Divorce Mediator
Hello! I’m Liz
I'm a mom, a divorce mediator, and coach, with a twist – I call myself a transformational conflict coach. Why? Well, after my own rough divorce, I realized things could be different.
I went through the wringer, spending way too much money and feeling way too anxious.
But it hit me: it doesn't have to be that hard.
So, I made it my mission to help folks navigate conflict without all the drama. I've worked with hundreds of people, helping them sidestep the courtroom drama and save a ton of cash. Want to know what they've had to say? Check out my Google reviews.
