Collaborative Divorce Counselling Plantation

Collaborative Divorce Counselling Plantation

Collaborative divorce provides a unique and more cooperative alternative to traditionally litigated divorces. This process places the solutions and agreements in the hands of the involved parties. Unlike the pro se divorce where each party represents themselves, in the collaborative divorce each party has their own attorney and both attorneys are committed to facilitating a working agreement. This provides people the comfort of knowing their legal interests are represented while also feeling secure that the ultimate decisions belong to them and not a judge. The collaborative process focuses on identifying common grounds and clarifying values in order to ensure decisions are made with your long term goals in mind. Collaborative divorce requires that all parties participate in an honest good faith manner with the ultimate well being of all members of the family in mind. The collaborative process often involves the use of a collaborative divorce Coach or Facilitator. This role is usually filled by a mental health professional and is typically called a Divorce Coach or Facilitator. The Divorce Facilitator is skilled at recognizing and diffusing anxiety, anger and other emotional factors that often get in the way of resolutions. Additionally, the coach is trained in communication strategies and mediation to support the collaborate process. The divorce therapy plantation serves to clarify and identify your interests and goals, reduce misunderstandings, help develop viable co-parenting plans and facilitate a family’s transition through the process.
