Ingredients for mediation
Nov 20th, 2008 by Adrienne Keith
Mediation can be a good way to pave the way for a happy life after divorce. These are the most important ingredients for mediation: the ability to keep an open mind, a commitment to being honest, and the willingness to participate in good faith.
As a mediator, I don’t expect clients to get along…otherwise they wouldn’t need to see me. I do ask that clients show each other (and myself) basic courtesy, and that everyone (again including myself) be flexible. With these tools, we can have productive mediation sessions that allow you to address the things you need and then move forward in your life.
