Mediation offers couples a structured, collaborative path to resolving key divorce issues—without the emotional and financial cost of litigation. We help you reach thoughtful agreements on parenting time, communication, finances, and more, always keeping your child’s well-being at the center. With Suzanne’s background as a Family Relations Counselor, she understands both the emotional intensity and legal realities involved, ensuring a smoother, more empowering process.

FAQs

  • Yes. Mediation is voluntary and works best when both parties are open to collaboration, even if there's tension or conflict.

Support for separated parents who want to raise secure, healthy kids, together.

Parenting after separation is tough—especially when communication breaks down or conflict runs high. Co-parenting counseling creates a structured space to improve collaboration, reduce tension, and keep your child’s needs front and center. We help parents navigate transitions, align on parenting strategies, and, when necessary, develop parallel parenting plans for lower-contact situations.

FAQs

  • Not necessarily. We start with separate intake sessions, and depending on the situation, we may use separate or joint sessions going forward.

  • Co-parenting counseling is skills-based and focused on parenting—not the past relationship. It's not couples therapy and not about emotional reconciliation.

  • We do not make custody recommendations, but we can provide confirmation of attendance, progress summaries, or completion letters as needed.

  • We take those concerns seriously and tailor the process accordingly. In some cases, parallel parenting may be more appropriate, and we’ll help guide that determination.

  • Yes. Virtual sessions are available and often preferred for co-parents living in different areas or with strained dynamics.
