Divorce Initiation Strategies – The Negotiated Farewell

We frequently receive phone calls from people who want to get divorced but have no idea where to start.  One of the first questions we ask is – “does your spouse know you are getting divorced?”  Surprisingly, the answer is often “no.”  A skilled mediator may be able to help an initiating spouse figure out the best strategy for bringing up the subject of divorce.  So give one of our mediators a call if you are unsure as to how to broach the subject with your husband or wife.  And, take a look at Dr Jamie Williamson’s recent blog post where she explains Divorce Initiation Strategies included the Negotiated Farewell, a strategy that can be used by couples who want to jointly construct the story of the end of their marriage.  http://amitymediationworkshop.com/friendly-divorce-strategies/
