Deciding to divorce is a difficult decision; we believe that the process of resolving the terms of the divorce should not be additionally difficult.
Our commitment at CFR is to assist all parties through the divorce process - preventing the additional stress, cost, and disempowerment that so often comes with a litigated divorce. Even before the first mediation session, our Mediation Coordinators work with all parties to ensure that the resolution process moves smoothly and is tailored to meet the needs and wishes of both parties.
CFR Divorce Mediation
Our approach is client-focused with a behavioral health/wellness perspective incorporated into all service delivery. In other words, assisting our clients in proactively establishing a means for ongoing communication and effective co-parenting, as appropriate, is integral to our business model.
CFR Mediation allows those divorcing to decide how their story will unfold. Unlike the stories of a litigated divorce, those who choose to mediate through CFR do not leave a divorce mediation session lamenting that they "lost everything", or having received an order to do something he or she disagrees with. Nor will the process drag on for months, much less years.
CFR Mediation means targeted purposeful resolution services that are designed to efficiently and effectively resolve the terms of a divorce and, when children are involved, the parenting plan or custody agreement.
We focus on efficient and effective resolution where parties create a plan that works for them. No one is asked or forced into an agreement. Our mediators focus on areas of agreement and build on them. Parties are assisted in moving from their emotional positions to their shared interests promoting resolution. Divorce does not have to be a tragedy. Couples do not have to "fight it out".
