The Collaborative Divorce: Why Do Divorced Parents Disagree?
Update: 2012-02-23
Description
Psychologist Neil S. Grossman, Ph.D., ABPP, explores what interferes with family divorce recovery and how seemingly practical disputes between divorced parents can have a deeper context under the surface: emotions, power and/or self-image.
Dr. Grossman explains, "Divorced parents are coping with 3 main emotions: love, anger and sadness. Rather than being about 'winning', their ongoing struggles often are about getting an emotional reaction from each other. These parents may not be looking for a resolution after all."
Neil Grossman is a clinical and forensic psychologist board-specialized in couple and family psychology. His sub-specialty focus is on families undergoing a divorce.
The Collaborative Divorce Show features legal, financial and mental health professionals trained to help couples and families resolve disputes. The collaborative method is open and non-adversarial, without litigation or a judge, with the goal of a mutually agreeable outcome. Speakers are members of Collaborative Dispute Resolutions on Long Island, NY.
