Family Mediation
In Family Mediation, family members hire a neutral third party to help them resolve disputes regarding any number of family matters.

  • Division of labor
  • Parent/child conflict
  • Teen issues
  • House rules
  • Blended family concerns
  • Effective discipline

Family mediation is highly effective because:

  • Participants have a say-so in the outcomes
  • Parents don’t dominate the discussion
  • All parties walk away with a sense of win-win
  • Families learn how to communicate more effectively and respectfully
  • A structured process allows participants to understand each other’s positions and negotiate workable plans.

Elder Mediation
Elder Mediation is a form of Family Mediation generally involving seniors and their caregivers. Whether seniors still live at home or are now in a residential care facility, issues arise which can bring out heated family debate. Such issues may include:

  • Driving
  • Residence
  • Living Will
  • Estate matters
  • Caregiver burnout
  • Availability of community resources

For a FREE 1/2 hour consultation to learn if mediation can work for your family, please contact us. Making difficult decisions that impact caregivers and senior family members can be gut-wrenching. We hope you allow us to assist you in sorting through matters that can be at times painful and soul-searching for all involved.
