For Mediators Family Law Attorneys Therapists
Insight without regulation
Clients have that story I work with what’s underneath it

You're not just mediating. You're managing the emotional temperature of two people who can barely be in the same room.
The agreements you build are solid. The moment they leave your office , one bad text, one difficult handoff , the old cycle starts again.
The one who undoes it in the parking lot
The session goes well. Two days later it fell apart at the handoff not because the plan was wrong, but because one parent hit a trigger and the old pattern took over.
They arrive already flooded. Now you’re not mediating. You’re managing. The actual work doesn’t happen.
They want to do better and they keep ending up in the same place. Not because your work isn’t good. Because without regulation, insight alone doesn’t hold.
Mediation Prep
1–3 sessions before the mediation date. Your client arrives regulated, focused, and ready to negotiate.
Parallel Support
Coaching runs alongside your series. I handle the nervous system. You handle the negotiation.
Case Consultation
Expert perspective on a high-conflict dynamic before your next session. The first 20 minutes are always complimentary.
Recovery & Re-engagement
A session breaks down. Most clients don’t come back. Three focused sessions to re-center the client and return them to you ready to resume — not just willing to.
When your clients work with me, they show up differently.
When the cases that felt stuck start to move. The agreements you’ve built start to hold. Your work lands the way it was designed to.

Consultation
First call is on me

Because the patterns blocking your cases don’t live in the mind. They live in the body.
