Family Conflict Mediation (FCM)

There is a strong need for the mediation of disputes within the family. While a mediator is a neutral party, our Family Conflict Mediators have backgrounds as Licensed Therapists to aid in their understanding of the emotional needs of the family members.

What a Family Conflict Mediator does, is help the parties get the process of give and take in motion. In a divorce, the parties are dividing themselves. In a healing family, they begin anew on joining back together. Mediation becomes a form of intervention that enhances, rather than replaces, traditional counseling.

Victim-offender mediation helps to resolve differences without legal charges and court intervention.

School yard conflict and peer mediation teaches the life skills of compromise and resolution.
