Marriage is often viewed as the beautiful union of two individuals who share a common future. However, conflicts and differences may arise, which can create a divide in the relationship. Couples who are seeking a thoughtful and compassionate way to bridge the differences in their relationship can benefit from the services offered by Barclaydevere Family Mediation. Mediation offers a safe space to discuss issues and find common ground.
Family mediation is a process that involves trained and impartial mediators who work with couples to resolve disputes in a private, constructive manner. This process provides a safe environment for individuals to express their feelings and work towards improving their relationship. At Barclaydevere Family Mediation Billingshurst, we use a shuttle mediation process that allows both parties to communicate through the mediation.
Shuttle family mediation with Barclaydevere Billingshurst is a process that involves a third party mediator who moves between both parties to facilitate communication. It is an effective way to overcome communication barriers and build trust between couples. Some advantages of shuttle mediation include:
Maintaining a Safe Space
Shuttle family mediation ensures that neither partner feels threatened or intimidated as the mediator moves between them. This maintains an environment where both parties feel safe to express their feelings and opinions.
Neutral Ground
The shuttle mediator acts as a neutral third-party that can help both partners move beyond their personal biases and focus on finding common ground.
Reducing Tension and Emotion
Shuttle mediation allows each partner to step back and gather their thoughts, resulting in productive discussions with a lower emotional charge.
Focusing on the Future
Shuttle mediation focuses on finding practical solutions that will help the relationship move forward. The mediator can help the couple set realistic goals and create a plan for moving forward.
At Barclaydevere Family Mediation Billingshurst, we have extensive training and experience in shuttle mediation. Our team makes the process easy for couples by following these simple steps:
Step 1: Consultation
Our consultation involves meeting with both parties to discuss their current situation and explore the possibility of our shuttle mediation process. We assess each case and provide an explanation to the couple and how we can help them.
Step 2: Mediation Sessions
The mediation session involves both parties meeting alternatively with the mediator, who facilitates communication between them. The mediator also ensures that both parties feel heard and can suggest solutions.
Step 3: Agreement
Once the couple has reached common ground, the mediator will create a written agreement or plan for the future. This helps the couple to have something to refer back to should disputes arise in the future.
