My practice focuses on helping divorcing couples to resolve conflict through mediation, collaborative practice, and private judging, offering clients options for resolving disputes respectfully without going to court.
My goal is that each client is satisfied that the best possible outcome was reached, using the most appropriate process for their circumstances. I believe that understanding and compassion can create a path for resolution.
I am committed to advancing appropriate conflict resolution. I am a mediation and collaborative practice trainer and have written a manual for collaborative practitioners.
