About

Accredited mediator - Social Justice and NABFAM and ADRP -SA. Practice as mediator since 2015. Admitted attorney since 1989, specialising in divorces and family law.

Approach

I offer a future-focused, solution-driven approach to family and divorce mediation. My work centres on helping separating partners move beyond conflict and toward practical, sustainable agreements that support financial stability and independence for both parties. I place particular emphasis on the well-being of children, ensuring that their emotional and financial needs remain at the heart of every discussion. By encouraging respectful communication and cooperative co-parenting, I assist families in building a new, functional relationship dynamic that supports children as they adapt to change. Rather than revisiting the reasons a relationship has broken down, I guide clients in creating a clear and workable path forward—one that promotes dignity, stability, and long-term resilience for the entire family.
