Becoming a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst® was incredibly important to me as a mediator. The Center for Divorce Resolution process prioritizes informed divorce, and being a CFDA® allows me to ensure that both parties always understand the impact of their decisions.

Women who divorce after 50 see their standard of living drop by about 45%. Men see a 21% drop. That's according to research published in the Journals of Gerontology, and it's exactly why the financial planning around a later-life divorce matters so much more than it did at 30.

You're not alone in facing this. Nearly 40% of U.S. divorces now involve someone over 50, according to data reported by The New York Times and cited in an August 2026 InvestmentNews report on gray divorce. That share has more than doubled since 1990.

That doesn't mean divorce isn't the right choice. It means the financial planning around it matters more than ever.

A Certified Divorce Financial Analyst® can help you understand exactly where you'll stand financially, before you make any big decision.

Divorce looks different for every couple. But what needs to be sorted out? Often, it's the same for everyone.

Who keeps the house. How savings get split. What happens with the kids' schedule. How to create two supportive households. These decisions aren't unique to any one kind of relationship, which is why we meet ALL couples, including LGBTQ+ couples, wherever they are.

If you want to be in the driver's seat of your divorce, mediation is the best way to stay in control.

While the court gives you the opportunity to advocate for yourself, mediation gives you and your ex full control over the decisions that shape your future.

We believe no one knows you or your relationship better than the two of you, which is why you are almost always the best people to work together to reach an outcome that fits your family's needs.

Hi! I'm Sharon Count, founder and head mediator at the Center for Divorce Resolution.

My own divorce showed me just how much families need a compassionate, informed approach to the divorce process. That's why I founded CDR—to help individuals and families navigate divorce with clarity, confidence, and compassion.
