Currently working with the team at Mediation West as Community and Family Services Program Coordinator.  I have completed training in Basic Mediation, Family Mediation, Family Group Conferencing as well as SADR training.  I meet the requirements set forth by the Office of Dispute Resolution to be considered an approved Parenting Act Mediator.  I have a great deal of history and passion for working with families and children.   I consider mediation to be an empowering tool for individuals to discover and communicate their position, in an effort to potentially reach mutual meaningful resolutions.
