Divorce and Mediation Services in Madison, CT
Mediation is an intervention between people using a trained neutral third person, to assist them through a
conflict to achieve a mutually agreeable resolution. Mediation allows people to express their differences in a
respectful way.  At Coastal Counseling Associates our professionals guide the process in a comfortable and
private environment.  There are many situations where  mediation skills can be used such as business issues,
planning for elders, parent-child mediations, landlord/tenant, separation, divorce, and interpersonal issues.

Mediate!  
Mediation Services at Coastal Counseling Associates allow  parties to control the process of resolution.  Clients make
the decisions about what issues they are trying to resolve. The mediator does not impose a resolution, however,
facilitates the negotiations of the parties toward a mutual and personalized resolution.  Mediation is a voluntary
process of alternative dispute resolution. Parties may withdraw from the process at anytime.  Mediators encourage
open communication between both parties while remaining non-biased.  When you go to court for litigation outcomes
can be unpredictable and decisions about your  future may be decided by the court.  Mediation is done in a private
office setting- not the courtroom.   This may allow for a respectful, cooperative and personalized resolution.
