Areas of Practice
What I help with.
I work with separated families on the things that matter most - where children live, how assets are divided, how to move forward when the relationship is over but the connection remains.
As an Advanced Accredited Mediator, I apply high-level skills and knowledge to move people through difficult conversations and conflict, so you make progress and resolve issues, not just stay on a loop.
Areas of practice
Parenting matters
When parents separate, children need answers. Where will they live? How will they spend their time?
Who makes decisions about their school, their health, their daily lives? These are the hardest conversations. Emotions run high. Old wounds can surface. It's difficult to see past the hurt to what actually works for the children.
That's where I come in. I keep the conversation calm, focused, and always anchored in what works for the kids - not just today, but in the years ahead. And I help you reach an agreement you can both genuinely commit to, not one that falls apart the first time something changes.
Property
& Financial Matters
Dividing a life together is rarely straightforward. The house. The savings. The debts. The superannuation. The business you built. The sacrifices you made for the financial benefit of the family.
You can let a court decide how to divide it, and spend a significant portion of your assets to get there, but that will never feel right or fair.
Mediation gives you control. I help you work through the financials - keeping the conversation focused, and moving toward an outcome you can both live with, because your financial future is really important.
