Mediation for families

Sometimes, families have relational problems which are better addressed by mediation than by longer term therapy. Mediation can offer a more targeted way for families to move on from past hurts, rebuild trust and make constructive agreements on how to move forward.

​

Normally mediation for families involves introductory meetings with the family members, followed by one joint meeting in order to resolve a particular issue. In the joint mediation meeting I play a neutral, facilitative role, helping each of you understand each other's perspectives, acknowledge difficult experiences and agree ways to restore the relationship. 

 

I have experience in working with a range of different relational problems within families including for:

​​

• Adult siblings

• Couples within families

• Parents and teenagers

• Parents and adult children

​​​​

I've worked as a mediator with families in my own private practice and via Wandsworth Mediation Service (WMS). I'm a Registered Mediator with the Civil Mediation Council (CMC) and an accredited mediator with the London School of Mediation.

​

Please note that whilst I provide mediation for families I am not a family mediator, i.e. I do not provide mediation to help couples reach agreements in the process of separation or divorce.
