Prioritizing the children after separation.
The primary focus of co-parenting mediation is to help parents work together, improve communications skills and work through issues with the best interest of the children in mind.
Co-parent mediation provides an excellent venue for parents to sit together, establish new patterns of communication, and work through their residential schedules, parenting plan agreements, resolve misunderstandings and parenting conflict, and design a strong, child-centered parenting plan for their children while respecting each other as parents.

Utilizing mediation during a separation or divorce allows parties to make decisions that are reasonable for both parties and their family. In mediation, both parties meet with a mediator who provides assistance in helping the parties resolve disputes amicably in order to separate or end the marriage. Mediation can address child custody matters, parent planning, funding/support streams, and distribution of property.
Mediation can be extremely cost effective and an excellent alternative to traditional litigation in many circumstances and allows the parties to control decision making rather than placing those decisions in the hands of the court.

Discernment counseling is a short-term form of treatment designed for couples who are considering divorce or separation but are uncertain about their decision.
Discernment counseling differs from traditional couples therapy in that the primary goal is not to resolve relationship issues or improve the relationship. Instead, the focus is on helping you and your partner better understand both of your feelings and the dynamics of your relationship so you can make a more informed decision about whether to move forward with divorce or work on repairing your relationship.
