Linda Tell, MFT, RN (Mental Health Professional/Mediator)
I began working with couples in 1990. As a therapist and coach, I have been privileged to take part in many meaningful and poignant moments couples have shared with each other. Divorcing couples, who allowed themselves to be coached, were able to preserve their self-respect, communicate their feelings more clearly, and find something to really appreciate in the other. By taking this opportunity, these couples enhanced their ability to leave each other without malice and contempt; making it easier to continue raising their children together.

  • General Comments
    It saddens me that you are going through a divorce. I wish we could have met during happier times.

    If you choose to divorce collaboratively, please give yourself the benefit of all the professionals who want to help you. Each of us have specially trained skills and background to assist you in various ways. Have you noticed many of us have gray hair™™ That's a benefit to you...because we have developed professional and personal life experiences that makes us good at what we do!

    When you choose a collaborative professional/team, you are creating an opportunity to divorce respectfully and honorably. One of my roles is to keep that goal foremost in everyone's mind.
