The first time we meet will be one of getting to know each other. You will be asked to talk about the issue(s) which you feel need(s) addressing. This will enable me to understand and see the picture you relate clearly and in detail. We will discuss the number of sessions that may be required initially. These will normally be during the day, but evening sessions can also be arranged.

The 'Counselling' arm of the practice specialises and covers all relationship issues, including affairs and betrayal and child related matters. It also explores the possibility of reconciliation. In short, counselling in the broadest sense. Problems in a relationship can range from those that aggravate and fester to those causing it’s break-up. Whatever, the sooner they are addressed the more likely a positive outcome.

The 'Mediation' arm of the practice deals with separation of assets, residence and contact of children, and all other associated issues requiring resolution. It also deals with all the issues that will be required to be settled and agreed in law. If much can be agreed at this stage the process of separation/divorce becomes less traumatic, long winded, and expensive. Couples are normally seen at first individually, then together. However if either of the parties feels unable to meet with the other, mediation can still take place, but will, by necessity become more prolonged.
