Partnerships
Tavistock Relationships has developed a number of partnerships with a range of organisations in order to bring together a variety of skills and expertise and help us to achieve our aims.
We work with other relationship support charities as part of the Relationships Alliance, with professional counselling and psychotherapy associations and with private companies to share our resources and increase our impact on improving couples', families' and society's relationships and well-being.

Mishcon de Reya
International law firm Mishcon de Reya and Tavistock Relationships are working together in an initiative designed to reduce litigation over the children of separating couples. As part of the initiative parents will be offered an alternative dispute resolution, in the form of therapeutic remedies, so that litigation is no longer the first choice for the resolution of parental disagreements.
