Mediation Services

“Facilitating mutually-agreeable solutions
through collaborative alternative dispute resolution


I am pleased to offer my services as a Certified Mediator in Chaffee and Saguache counties. Mediation is a more collaborative, less adversarial approach to resolving conflict. Mediation is an effective alternative dispute resolution option in cases of:

 Divorce or Legal separation
 Workplace conflicts or Employer – Employee disagreements
 Medical claims issues or Doctor – Patient disputes
 Real estate contracts
 Business or Customer Service complaints
 Contractor – Customer contractual disagreements

My approach to addressing conflict is based on the Collaborative Facilitative Interest-based model - empowering parties to reach positive self-determined solutions. I utilize Non Violent Communication in each mediation session as the means to "get to the heart of the matter" and work from a place of truth and authenticity. My extensive training in conflict mediation and non-violent communication works with a variety of populations.

Focusing on the feelings and attempting to meet the needs of each party through an impartial and supportive process leads to greater satisfaction and financial savings in resolving difficult issues.

My professional and personal backgrounds are varied and well-suited to the level of experience and responsibilities that offering mediation services entails. With a graduate degree in Communications, twenty years of experience in working with high-risk adolescents and families, and most recently the lead facilitator in restorative circles for Full Circle Restorative Justice, I am now incorporating my skills into a private mediation practice.

The initial 30 minute consultation is free of charge, and I offer a need-based sliding scale for payment of fees.

I appreciate your interest, and I look forward to serving the community’s mediation needs now and in the future.
