Family Resolutions Services
My vision is to create a transformative space where families, individuals, and professionals converge to redefine the narrative surrounding separation and divorce. We aspire to revolutionize the paradigm, fostering an environment where compassion, collaboration, and child-centric solutions flourish.
Our mission is to empower individuals navigating separation and divorce by providing them with the tools, guidance, and support needed to prioritize the well-being of children while fostering healthier, less adversarial transitions.
Through innovative coaching methodologies, comprehensive educational resources, and collaborative workshops, we aim to:
Promote Empathy and Understanding
Encourage empathy among families and professionals involved in the process, fostering understanding of the emotional complexities involved in separation. By acknowledging these emotions, we aim to facilitate constructive conversations and decisions.
Foster Child-Centered Approaches
Emphasize the significance of child-centric approaches, ensuring that the best interests of the children remain at the forefront of every decision. We believe in empowering parents and professionals with the knowledge and skills to create nurturing environments for children during transitions.
Cultivate Collaborative Solutions
Advocate for less adversarial and more collaborative methods of conflict resolution. We offer tools and strategies that enable families to resolve disputes amicably, reducing the need for litigation and fostering mutually beneficial agreements.
Empower Professionals
Equip legal, mental health, and educational professionals with specialized training and resources to navigate separations and divorces with a focus on promoting cooperative resolutions. By enhancing their skills and understanding, we aim to reshape professional practices and approaches.
Create a Supportive Community
Build a community where individuals facing similar challenges can connect, share experiences, and offer mutual support. We believe in the strength of community solidarity in navigating life-altering transitions.

Dr. Gilman works side-by-side with you, helping you move effectively and efficiently through realigning your relationship for the best interests of your children.

Reunification
Children exposed to significant conflict require special guidance that, at times, can seem counter-intuitive. This is more important than ever when a child has completely cut-off from one parent. We support parents to understand their children's behavior & experience to heal the attachment relationship.

I provide a safe environment for both teens and parents to help mediate and solve problems that arise during this tumultuous period. The parent -child-relationship is one of the most sacred on earth, and I’m here to help.
It was once believed that teens were impulsive due to raging hormones and that they were difficult because they hated authority. But advances in brain imaging, which gathered force in the 2000s, told a much more complicated story.
This new understanding of the biology that underlies these behaviors can be helpful to both teenagers and their parents. I stress the importance of setting examples of appropriate emotional responses and helping young people navigate difficult situations that are increasingly common among adolescents.
