Practice Description |
Utilizing insight and careful strategies to minimize power imbalances, Amy engages all parties and mediates with neutrality and confidence to catalyze the most beneficial and satisfying outcomes. Appropriate issues for mediation include conflicts involving communication, care for elderly parents, medical issues, financial issues, discipline, school issues, teacher – parent relations, caregiver issues, or differences in parenting styles.
Additionally, mediation can be used to make decisions for family events.
The family reunion, graduation celebration or wedding will run more smoothly with much less anxiety and tension once Amy has worked with the parties to thoughtfully prepare for and to navigate logistics, potential conflict, and intense emotions.
