Ireland’s First Integrated Therapy-Led Mediation Process for Divorcing Couples

Divorce doesn’t have to be destructive. It doesn’t have to drain your finances, damage your children, or turn two people who once cared for each other into adversaries.

Ireland’s First Integrated Therapy-Led Mediation Process for Divorcing Couples

At Harmonious Divorce, we’ve created Ireland’s first fully integrated, therapy-led mediation process — designed specifically for couples who want a calm, structured and respectful way to separate.

We support low- to medium-conflict couples who are committed to resolving their separation in a mature, child-centred and emotionally intelligent way. Our process blends psychotherapy, mediation and legal preparation into one seamless pathway, helping you move from emotional overwhelm to practical clarity.

This is a new model for Ireland. A better model. One that protects your well-being, your family dynamic and your future.

Why We Built This Process

Traditional divorce in Ireland is often adversarial, expensive, slow and emotionally damaging.
Couples are pushed into legal battles before they’ve had space to process the emotional and relational breakdown of the relationship.

This leads to:

  • communication breaking down

  • unresolved emotions driving conflict

  • children getting caught in the middle

  • thousands spent unnecessarily on solicitors

  • months or years of stress

Harmonious Divorce was built to fix this.

We start with therapy, not legal action — because emotional clarity creates better agreements. When couples feel heard, supported and grounded, mediation flows easily and agreements become collaborative instead of combative.

The Three-Step Harmonious Divorce ModelOur integrated process includes:

Therapy - 6 Sessions

You each work with accredited psychotherapists who support you through:

  • the emotional transition of the separation

  • communication skills that support mediation

  • understanding needs, boundaries and values

  • reducing triggers, conflict loops and emotional overwhelm

  • preparing mentally and emotionally for constructive negotiation

This foundation is essential. It’s what makes our mediation sessions smoother, faster and far more effective.

Mediation - 6 Sessions

After therapy, you move into a structured mediation process with an experienced family mediator.

Together, you’ll agree on:

  • parenting plans

  • living arrangements

  • financial arrangements

  • maintenance

  • property decisions

  • timelines

  • core agreements

Our mediators specialise in helping couples stay focused, respectful and child-centred.

All sessions can take place in person in Stillorgan or online.

Legal Preparation & Court Filing

Once agreements are reached, we help prepare:

  • your mediation summary

  • your settlement agreement

  • your court documents

  • your filing pack for the Circuit Court

Couples can proceed without solicitors if they wish — saving thousands in legal fees — or we can liaise with your solicitor if you prefer to have one.

Our goal is to make the legal end of the process simple, clear and stress-free.
