Mediation Interests

I am a nationally accredited Family Dispute Resolutions Practitioner (FDRP) working with Family Law matters. I am an advocate of Mediation as an alternative to litigation when resolving disputes within families. With strong interpersonal skills and an ability to draw out the concerns of all parties involved, I work to facilitate a resolution that can be accepted by all participants.

I have been working in Private Practice as a Clinical Mental Health Social Worker and Counsellor and for over 10 years and have been FDRP registered for over 3 years. I am also a Child Consultant and New Ways for Families Practitioner. As an FDRP I am registered with and supported by the Attorney General’s Office of Australia.

As a Child Consultant I also offer Child Inclusive Mediation & Counselling (CIMC). This is a therapeutic intervention for separated parents in dispute, designed to support and powerfully realign co-parenting, by focusing on the experiences of their children and bringing their voice into the mediation room.
