Parenting
Plan
Divorce or separation is often a difficult and painful process to endure. A relationship that once provided certainty is no longer a place of support and stability. It can be very stressful for you and your ex-partner, but facing the unknowns and issues alone can heighten the effects it has on one's emotional state, including your children.
We are here to assist you and your ex-partner in providing CERTAINTY and STABILITY throughout the divorce/separation process while strategically creating a peaceful parenting PLAN. As a neutral party, we can assure your parenting agreement will meet the needs of both parents, as well as, the emotional and psychological well-being of the children.
Some Common Issues Parents Come To Us With:
-
Inability to agree on parenting styles and scheduling
-
Newly separated and need an agreement to outline parenting time
-
Prevention of parental alienation from important events and activities
-
Lack of respect in regard to what is best for the children
-
Poor boundaries when introducing a new partner
-
Inability to communicate with children outside of parenting time
"My ex and I had been married for over ten years with two children. We knew our marriage was over but we wanted our children to have a relationship with both of us. We heard from a few trusted friends who had previously got a divorce to try mediation first. After our first mediation session, I felt more at ease having our parenting plan in the works. Once we completed the whole process, my ex and I could contribute to our children's college funds due to the financial resources we saved choosing mediation. I highly recommend Jan and Jillian as they co-mediate which gives you a feeling its neutral at all times because they work in what's in the best of everyone."
