2-day Weekend WorkshopMilton Keynes |
There are nearly 150,000 applications for divorce each year in England and Wales. Although the divorce rate has been falling, it does not take into account the increasing number of couples who choose not to marry or those in civil partnerships whose relationships have broken down. There is no doubt that divorce and separation both cause very real emotional upheaval for everyone involved, including any children, friends and family. In short, divorce and separation can be a very isolating, painful, stressful and expensive process.
This groundbreaking workshop will be invaluable for anyone (married or not) whose relationship is ending, whether they are the instigator or the unsuspecting partner. It will enable you to develop specific practical skills and communication techniques that will be particularly useful throughout the divorce/separation process. This is a confidential, informal and non-judgemental workshop. It will help you to discover the numerous potentially expensive and stressful pitfalls and problem areas that you may encounter along the way, and it will give you the confidence and skills to pre-empt and manage these situations effectively, thereby reducing the stress and associated expense. It may well also help you to move on more quickly into the next phase of your life.
The development of interpersonal skills traditionally has been targeted specifically at the business community in order to provide solutions for dealing with various workplace situations. However, it was personal experience of the difficult and stressful divorce and separation process that inspired the conception of the Divorcing Tools model by H2 Training and Consultancy. It was developed by a small group of H2 Consultants who between them have significant personal and professional experience in the related fields of occupational psychology; interpersonal effectiveness training; skills coaching; divorce and personal counselling, as well as having survived the divorce and separation process themselves.
Divorcing Tools reapplies the tried and tested skills and techniques of emotional intelligence, assertive communication, strategic problem solving, negotiation and conflict resolution (amongst others) to the specific challenges of a relationship breakdown.

"Thanks very much for the workshop I found it really useful (and I promise to let you know how the mediation goes)"
"It was especially useful that the session drew from my own experiences – it provided practical solutions and wasn’t too theoretical”
