About

I have been an attorney for more than 20 years and have specialised in family law since 2007. I trained as a family law mediator and 2009 and ran a dual practice, offering litigation and mediation services. I trained as a life coach through the Ford Institute and am able to bring the skills I learned in life coaching to my mediation practice, weaving together legal skills, mediation skills and coaching skills to provide a unique offering to clients.

Approach

I blend my legal knowledge gleaned from over 20 years as an attorney with the skills that I have learned through both mediation training and my training as a life coach through the Ford Foundation to provide a service that is rooted in the belief that parties are best placed to make decisions for their families. My role as the mediator is to guide and facilitate discussions to result in real solutions.
