Synopsis

As divorce rates continually climb (US statistics quote ranges in 45-50% of marriages 14 years or older result in divorce) this ever growing population will be seeking your services. As a Clinician, a good solid understanding of what they may experience through the divorce process will enhance your ability to help them. Your clients will come to you in various stages of pre-divorce consideration, during the process and post divorce. The guidance herein can be adapted to all of these stages. A large portion of this book is focused on the wounding that results in costly drawn out litigated divorce cases. When a marriage is irreparable there is a great need to buffer those family members from an additional layer of pain and suffering that can be caused through the litigious legal divorce process. A family already devastated by a failed relationship between spouses should be aware that they can benefit from resources available to them to avoid very costly common pitfalls. Most of the conflict and wounding can be greatly reduced by seeking out low conflict alternative methods of divorce. Family Mediation Centers can offer these alternative methods and we strongly encourage you to refer your clients to these centers prior to them hiring an Attorney and engaging in the traditional legal process that can be so devastating. These centers provide teams of professionals including financial planners, mediators and attorneys that are dedicated to serving families the most efficient way possible. Many family members incur long term devastating debt and develop post traumatic stress disorder brought on by a high conflict, litigated divorce. Often these families can never emotionally recover. Our mission is to provide you, the Clinician with tools and resources for you to empower these families to make wise decisions that will springboard the family into a healthy post divorce mindset. This book is a compilation of contributions from a variety of professionals, all experts in family therapy with an extended tenure serving in their respective fields.
