Through facilitated dialogue, I help parties explore and uncover obstacles to mutual understanding and move out of unproductive conversations. I facilitate challenging conversations in a confidential, safe and productive environment, where the parties decide their own outcomes.
Areas of practice include:
- adverse medical/healthcare incidents
- family conflict
- probate, estates and guardianships
- workplace conflict
Services
Mediation
Mediation can help move parties past perceived wrongs or inequities toward renewed and repaired relationships or monetary settlements that feel equitable. Often a signed agreement is reached which may be binding on the parties.
Facilitation
Facilitation of group conversations or meetings can help keep group work sessions orderly and productive. The neutral facilitator helps keep the dialogue process balanced and productive.
Communication Coaching
With communication coaching, you will learn how to effectively communicate so that others truly hear your words and understand your interests. Once you can communicate more effectively, your desired outcomes are more easily attainable.
