博客來An invaluable resource for professionals working with separating families in conflict
This book defines, with humanity and wisdom, a pragmatic guide to why and how Jill Goldson’s methodology works for separated families in conflict.
Proven strategies for practice with troubled and complex families are woven into a clear exposition of family mediation practice. The case studies illustrate issues from the management of grief and change through to parental alienation and child mental health.
Offering a groundbreaking guide to a pragmatic yet inspirational way of working with the everyday challenges of family crisis, the clearly described Goldson Model is an essential tool for family practitioners and policy makers alike. At a time of global turmoil, the will to take care of families could not be better placed.
Jill Goldson is the award-winning founder of the Goldson Model. An expert practitioner, published researcher, media commentator and trainer in the field of family mediation, she has run thousands of mediations and advised government policy on family law interventions in the out-of-court space. Child-inclusive work with families can substantially enhance outcomes of agreements for all members of the family in transition, and significantly decrease the risk of parent-child contact problems.
＂A radical departure from the strictures of court processes which, sadly, have the power to silence children and polarise parents.＂ Mark Henaghan, Professor of Law, Auckland University
＂Child-inclusive mediation is a complex and troubled field of work. This little book contains more wisdom, humanity, inspiration and guidance in the complexity and skills (required) than many a weightier tome.＂
Dr Nick Child, retired psychiatrist, Director of Two Wishes Foundation
＂Jill’s wealth of experience in therapy and child-inclusive mediation has been invaluable in the refocus of the family justice system.＂
Rosslyn Noonan, Chief Human Rights Commissioner, 2001-2011
