In this episode of The Divorce Circle Podcast, I am joined by Registered Clinical Counsellor, and Clinical Director of Alyson Jones & Associates, Alyson Jones, who specializes in helping families and children through difficult transitions. Join Sabeena and Alyson as they discuss the dangers of staying in a toxic or negative relationship for the sake of the children in the family. As well as how to explore healthy dialogue with your kids surrounding divorce in British Columbia, how we should never take advantage of the resilience of children, while understanding the capacity they have to thrive in dual homes, and when to talk to children about an impending parental separation or divorce.
