Family Mediation
Arguments and disputes occur in every family. The question is not whether conflicts arise, but how they are handled. In a professional family mediation, you can address problems, gather ideas, and make concrete agreements for the future. This leads to a better understanding of each other and strengthens mutual trust.
In the case of a separation, especially for parents with children, there is a lot to discuss. How can you continue to be there for the children together and take responsibility for them? How do we handle financial aspects such as the division of joint assets, pension entitlements? All of this can be clarified well in a mediation.
What Is Discussed in Family Mediation?
Ideas of partnership and family are diverse. In mediation, different desires, hopes, and fears are expressed and then creatively brought into harmony.
It is often about how family cohesion can be strengthened and how different needs can be respected. A key to improving the relationship is communication with one another. It’s about how, when, and about what is communicated. Different needs and interests must also be considered here.
Parents with differing views on parenting still want to work together. How can this be achieved best?
Couples who separate still want to care for their children together as parents. How do you want to organize daily life? How do we arrange contact with the children, and how do we finance their living expenses?
Benefits of Family Mediation
In family mediation, you can openly address problems, worries, fears, and hopes. Open discussion clears up misunderstandings, helps you gain a better understanding of one another, and discover common ground.
Families often experience new forms of interaction and communication through mediation, which benefit them in the long term. You learn to accept criticism and to see conflict as an opportunity for positive change.
Through mediation, you gain new options for action and influence over your family life. This leads to long-term relief and greater satisfaction.
New Paths in a Relationship
Mediation also offers many possibilities for couples who do not want to separate but wish to strengthen their relationship. You can talk openly about the current state of your relationship, challenges, fears, and hopes. In a structured process, you develop concrete proposals for how you want to shape your partnership in the future.
Compared to couples therapy, discussions in mediation do not go as deeply. We only talk about past experiences and emotions as much as necessary to make concrete agreements for the future. Mediation can be a supplement to therapy.
