In this episode, hosts Matt & Liza talk to Sushma Kotecha from Holistic Family Mediation & Coaching to look at how mediation can help couples work together to have a more dignified and amicable separation.

Sushma talks about what mediation is, how it works, the process, what a MIAM is, and how it helps separating couples work through their issues, explore their options and make informed decisions about their future.

Sushma also explains how mediation is not suitable for all couples, the red flags she looks for, and what you can do if one person is resistant to trying it.

Sushma also explains her holistic approach to mediation, working with client’s mind, body, spirit and soul to help them change the narrative of their separation - leaving the past behind and focusing on building a positive future for them and their family.

Please note, after recording this session, the Separated Parents Information Programme’ (SPIPs) was replaced by the Planning Together for Children.  This new programme is only offered to parents within the court system via CAFCASS, and is not available to purchase for separated parents on a private paying basis.
