Marital Mediation for Same Sex Couples
Like opposite sex couples, same-sex couples struggling in their relationship can get great benefit though marital mediation or marriage mediation (also known as mediation to stay married).
In a series of mediation sessions, the couples identify their presenting issues. The neutral marriage mediator listens, observes their interactions, and provides input. Marriage mediators can see patterns of misunderstandings, miscommunication, and assumptions between the couples that the couple themselves cannot see. In an open and honest way, the marital mediator uses these observations to work with the couple and help them improve their communications.
Marital mediation is generally short term (several sessions) and practical, often leading to the formulation of a written agreement (postnuptial agreement) that can help the couple resolve issues in the future.
