EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION

 At Good Family Matters, we recognize how challenging it can be to deal with a separation.  We have been through it ourselves which is why are so passionate about helping families.   Our goal is to help you come to a best-case working partnership.

There are often issues that need to be resolved that are emotionally charged and difficult to talk about.  Many times people have differing opinions about what has transpired or what is fair.   On top of that, many relationships come to this point because communication has already broken down.

OUR GOAL

 Our goal is to work with you to create an environment where conversation happens with 100% respect and 100% honesty.  It won’t always be easy but it will always produce better, more flexible and more sustainable agreements.

CRUCIAL CONVERSATIONS

 At Good Family Matters, we have searched for the best tools to build upon the strengths of traditional mediation.   Crucial Conversations is a best-selling book that provides strategies and tools to facilitate conversations when the stakes are high, emotions are charged, and opinions differ.  

 

We can deal with crucial conversations in one of three ways:

  1. Avoid them
  2. Face them and handle them poorly
  3. Face them and handle them well
