Description of Practice
Our practice is a client centered, team approach: your life, your decisions. We will guide you, lay out your options and try to teach you conflict resolution methods that you may use in the future. Your family unit needs to be dismantled with the same care as when it was built. Our goal is to try to preserve family principles while resolving your problems.
Experience
I have done hundreds of mediations and the majority are successful.
