Meet with Dr. Hilary S. Berger, Ed.D., founder of Work Like a Mother, Attorney Vicki Volper, JD, LLM, and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Mediator Paula Levy, MA, LMFT; co-founders of Mediation Team CT, as they host an informal open house at 3 Sylvan Road, 2nd Floor, in Westport on May 1st, 2014.  All are invited to drop in, anytime between 10:00 am-12:00 pm, to learn about the free upcoming seminar being offered to stay-at-home mothers who are contemplating divorce. 

 

               “The idea of re-immerging as a professional after an absence can be daunting,” states Berger, who has created a career development model designed exclusively for mothers in transition.  Her process addresses the psychological immobilization resulting from lost confidence, outdated skills and years away from work and focuses on the rebuilding of confidence, gaining clarity and a developing a realistic, solution oriented strategy to close the gap and reemerge as a vital and relevant professional.

 

            Levy added, “The anticipation of divorce can raise many issues, including fear of the unknown, financial insecurity, concern for the children and a feeling of the loss of identity.”  These concerns can be addressed using the non-adversarial, forward-thinking approach that Mediation Team CT incorporates.  Volper practices a divorce method that helps women to maintain their dignity, preserve their assets and protect their children. “We strive to educate stay-at-home mothers about this process,” Volper said, “and we do so in a safe and supportive environment.”

 

            The three experienced professionals are ready to answer your questions pertaining to the impact of divorce on your emotional, financial and professional life.
