Portland and Beaverton Divorce
Mediator Matthew House, J.D.:

​Tweens, Teens, and Young Adults

Matthew provides no-cost services to the children (age 12-22) of his divorce mediation clients who are engaged in a full divorce mediation process.

Because Matthew is not specifically a therapist and because he has a casual office emphasizing comfort and minimizing jargon, kids easily open up and share their concerns and questions.

After kids meet with Matthew, many parents and kids find themselves surprised that the kids spoke so long and openly. It is common for kids to want to visit with Matthew more than once, which he encourages.  Many of the kids who first met Matthew while they were teenagers are now in their 20s and 30s.  Many of them continue to keep in touch with Matthew and visit him in person.

​Further, if your child is 18 to 20 years of age and is a student, Matthew will need to speak to your child to explain how the divorce process involves adult children and a particular form that needs to be signed as part of the divorce process.
Matthew House is the only metro Portland mediator who has: a law degree and 20 years of experience as a mediator, Parenting Coach, and mentor providing free services to pre-teens, teens, and young adults; seven years as a K-12 educator; training as a Family Law Financial Analyst; and a Notary commission.
