Beyond the ordinary

Divorce is both a legal transition and a deeply personal one. My approach to mediation addresses both. As a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Certified Divorce Mediator, I bring years of experience helping families navigate conflict, difficult conversations, major life transitions, and complex family dynamics. My background allows me to offer a mediation process that is not only practical and solution-focused, but sensitive to the emotional realities that often accompany divorce. My role as a mediator is neutral. I do not take sides or make decisions. I help both parties identify issues that need to be resolved, communicate more effectively, explore workable options, and reach agreements they can both accept. When children are involved, I place particular emphasis on helping parents move from being spouses to effective co-parents. The goal is to develop thoughtful, realistic agreements that provide stability for children while respecting the needs and responsibilities of both parents. I believe people are often capable of making better decisions for their own families than having those decisions made for them in a courtroom.

From modest beginnings, I have grown through unwavering dedication and a commitment to continuous improvement. Each step has reinforced my core belief in the power of collaboration and the importance of integrity. I am passionate about what I do, and  I am excited to share my story with you.
