“After two years of unsuccessful marriage counseling, and creating an unhealthy environment for our young child, my (ex) wife and I knew we were heading for a divorce. One thing we knew we could agree upon is that we did not want to have an adversarial, contentious divorce. This is what causes some of the most stress and emotional trauma in children.
We both agreed that instead of hiring separate attorneys and digging in our heels, we would find a mediator that handles multiple aspects of the divorce process. After tedious research, it was determined that Kelley Linn’s Divorce Mediation Center was the only one that offered multiple services under one umbrella. We met Kelley for a no cost consultation. We were both nervous, stressed, and wrought with emotion. Kelley sensed this and put us at ease by explaining the process as a series of steps rather than one giant mountain. She has been down this road before and knows how much of an emotional roller coaster divorce is.
We both agreed that we felt comfortable moving forward with Kelley’s services, and were able to get through the process without even needing to utilize the optional mediators. We were able to agree on all terms. It is important to remember that Kelley is not an attorney, and she will not give you legal advice (she reminded us a couple of times when conversation occasionally veered towards a grey area).
Look, this is one of the hardest situations you will ever experience in life. Ask yourself; Do you want to potentially spend tens of thousands of dollars and months of time fighting tooth and nail for what you feel you deserve, while creating unnecessary emotional distress for your child(ren)? If both of you can think of them first, set aside your anger, hurt, or differences, you will see that Kelley’s services may be exactly what you need.”

And, the way you led us through the process gave us the foundation to heal and to eventually build a new, healthy, kind, co-parenting relationship.

“Kelley Linn of Divorce Mediation Centers has a great process for helping divorcing couples. We saved thousands of dollars, negotiated a settlement that was fair to both of us, and avoided the painful animosity that so often comes with the territory. Thanks Kelley, for being kind, fair, professional and helpful.”

“We would like to provide a recommendation for the services provided by Divorce Mediation Center. We started the divorce process with lawyers, who seemed to be committed to making the process as adversarial as possible (and to billing the maximum number of hours). In two short weeks, we had spent nearly $20,000. Fortunately, friends told us about Kelley Linn and Divorce Mediation Center. From that point on, the process focused on coming to an agreement through the use of the mediation process. If you are considering divorce, we recommend Divorce Mediation Center.”

“Without your assistance, our divorce would have been extremely difficult. We had no way of knowing how to navigate this journey. We are very grateful that you were there to explain it all and put great professionals in our path to help us through it. Your system of first financials, then mediation, then Attorneys was very cut and dry and if there had been no emotions to it on our part, the process would have been a breeze. Thank you for all of your help.”

“Kelley Linn made a very overwhelming and emotional situation much easier to manage. She had both of our best interests at heart and most importantly helped us see the light at the end of the tunnel. She is very informed and calm and walks you through every step of the process. We both felt we were in good hands, and she was unbelievable in guiding us through the process. Not that I wish divorce on anyone, but if you find that your path in life, she is by far your first phone call.”
Jill K – Former Client
“Kelley Linn was absolutely a delight to work with. She made a very difficult process much more tolerable by offering mediation as a solution. It was way faster and less expensive than going through traditional divorce methods like attorneys. My ex-husband and I both ended up with very fair end results and we were able to part ways amicably by bypassing a messy court battle. I have recommended Divorce Mediation Centers to multiple other couples going through divorce and everyone has appreciated the process. “

“I can’t thank you enough for your help and support throughout this difficult journey the past 6 months. You have been such a tremendous help to me all of the way in so many ways. The information and resources that you provided were invaluable to me, as I knew so little when I entered into this process. Paul and Tracy were such professionals who made the settlement process amazingly efficient. I was very impressed with both of them. Thank you also for the additional post settlement resources that I will need in the coming weeks and months.”

“Kelley Linn, Founder of Divorce Mediation Centers is on a mission to take the worst out of divorce for children and their families by helping parents who are anticipating a marital break-up plan ahead to hire non-combative attorneys, use the mediation process effectively, and use various professionals to ameliorate the harm. I recommend this company, Transitions Resource Divorce Mediation Centers to mental health professionals who want to see their clients divorce with the least amount of damage and to individuals who are contemplating that they are soon to divorce or be divorced. The earlier in the process an individual consults with them, the more divorce trauma they may avoid.

Professionals should consider her Continuing Education and Consulting Service a must-do. I recommend her without reservation.”

Kelley Linn, founder of Transitions Resource, and the Divorce Mediation Centers is doing very important work in helping people going through divorce. In my psychotherapy practice, I use her Divorce Prep Materials to help my clients avoid the devastation of a costly/emotionally wounding divorce process, which is unnecessary if the family is educated on alternative methods! I highly recommend her prep materials and workshops. Her expertise and passion for helping people through divorce has made a crucial difference in outcome to so many people.

“The time spent with you was very beneficial for us. Your insight and ideas have made this difficult time easier to navigate. Specifically, the one page in the Divorce Prep booklet on how to tell the kids helped us a lot. Our children are comfortable and confident mostly because we followed the suggestions in the booklet… thank you for producing and providing the books, and thank you very much for the time that took to meet with us at a crucial time in our lives. You are a blessing to us and our family.”

“A friend of mine recommended Kelley Linn’s Divorce Prep Book, when my daughter realized she needed a divorce. We purchased the book which was very helpful in several ways. They learned that they did not have to go to court, and they could save a lot of money that way. We are very grateful to have had the Divorce Prep Book to help guide her through a painful experience. I would gladly recommend Kelley Linn to anyone contemplating a divorce.”
