Parenting and Co-Parenting Mediation

Parenting and co-parenting mediation supports parents in making practical, child-focused decisions during separation or after relationship breakdown. At Clearpoint, this service is delivered within a structured mediation process designed to reduce conflict, clarify responsibilities, and promote stability for children.

Parenting and co-parenting mediation may address parenting schedules, decision-making responsibilities, communication expectations, transitions between households, and strategies for managing ongoing co-parenting interactions. The focus is on helping parents reach workable agreements that reflect their family’s circumstances and can be sustained over time.

Mediation is neutral and facilitative. Clearpoint does not take sides or determine outcomes. Parents remain responsible for decisions reached through the process, with mediation providing structure, guidance, and clarity.
