Approach to Mediation Practice

On The Same Page Mediation is dedicated to respectful resolution of Family conflict. My training and experience working within the family system makes me uniquely qualified in understanding family dynamics and allows for a fair and practical mediated agreement that will stand the test of "TIME".
