It is normal to feel a sense of significant grief and loss after divorce, and to need additional support from family, friends and even a professional. Johnson Mediation offers professional grief management & support to help you work through your grief and move forward in a healthy way.

If you are contemplating a divorce, you may have been advised to consider mediation as a way to settle the important issues such as division of property, assets and debt, development of a parenting plan (or custody agreement) and even determination of appropriate child and/or spousal support.

Johnson Mediation specializes in offering professional divorce mediation services and can help you navigate the entire divorce process from start to finish.

Every couple who finds themselves in the process of divorce should pursue the best possible means of finalizing the divorce. At Johnson Mediation, we provide mediation services for divorcing couples. We believe that the evidence of the last several decades indicates that mediation is the single best means of finalizing a divorce for most couples. Infact, the court in Minnesota may require the two parents to agree to mediate any disputes regarding joint physical custody before bringing a custody dispute back to court. Before you determine that mediated divorce is the right choice for you, we want you to understand how the divorce mediation process works.

Mediation is defined as an intervention in a dispute with the goal of promoting reconciliation, compromise or a settlement. When you and your spouse decide to divorce, there is often a baseline of high conflict. Divorce mediation is designed to actually resolve and reduce this conflict – rather than to exacerbate it, or make it worse. Settling a divorce through the traditional court system can have the exact opposite effect, increasing the overall conflict between the two parties. If you are looking for a way to settle your divorce in a way that puts you and your family first, divorce mediation is an avenue to consider. Johnson Mediation specializes in divorce mediation and can help you navigate the entire divorce process, from start to finish. We will help you get through it, find closure and even a bit of hope for the future.
