Strongly Held Emotions Are Often An Elephant in the Mediation Room
Divorce is a crisis, and it is fraught with emotional reactivity that often threatens to derail the mediation process. Mediators commonly witness this entirely normal back and forth, which frequently results in the same sorts of sniping that probably occurred within the home. At LAFMS we are dedicated to looking beneath the emotional chatter, and we have specifically trained for this by using the Understanding-Based Model of Mediation originated by Gary F. Friedman, Jack Himmelstein and Buddhist Abbot Norman Fischer.
