Disagreements are natural. Sometimes people find themselves stuck in the situation and need help talking with each other. Mediation allows participants to discuss issues in a private setting and reclaim their decision-making ability. Sherry Bruckner helps people engage in civil and constructive conversations in civil and family matters, ranging from consumer, housing, and personal injury to divorce, custody/parenting time, and family estate issues.

Sherry approaches mediation with curiosity and compassion, recognizing the importance of understanding individual needs. Besides facilitating constructive conversations between folks in conflict, Sherry teaches conflict resolution and peace building skills to businesses, organizations and individuals, and provides individual peace and conflict coaching. You may learn more in her free online monthly peace building class.
