Booking in your mediation is simple.
There are 5 simple steps involved. Let’s walk through it, step by step
-
Choose the mediation option that best suits your needs (half day or full day), then select your preferred date and time. We'll take it from there!
-
A deposit is required to secure your mediation booking. If one party has agreed to cover the full cost, the invoice will be issued to that person. If the costs are being shared equally, each party will receive a separate invoice for their portion. Where fees are being shared, payment from both parties must be received before the booking is confirmed. Once payment is received, your mediation date and time are secured.
-
A little preparation goes a long way. Before we meet, you'll each complete a confidential intake questionnaire so I can understand what's brought you to mediation, what's important to you and what you'd like to achieve. This means we can spend less time getting up to speed and more time focusing on the issues, exploring options and finding a practical way forward.
-
I will call you prior to the date set for the mediation to touch base with you - this is a a private conversation between you and me —the other party is not present. Anything you tell me in this private intake session is strictly confidential and will not be shared with the other party unless you give me permission to do so. This usually takes between 30 to 60 minutes.

This is where we bring everything together. I'll guide the conversation, help you work through the issues that matter, explore options and look for practical solutions. You'll each have the opportunity to be heard, ask questions and contribute to finding a way forward. The focus is on constructive conversations, finding common ground where possible and working towards an agreement you can both move forward with.
My role isn't to take sides or decide who's right or wrong – it's to help you find a practical way forward.
Our mediations are virtual.
I run our mediations through Microsoft Teams meaning you can stay in the comfort of your own home or office – anywhere that you feel calm and at ease. This also has the advantage of no additional room hire costs and is also the reason that we are able to offer costs lower than most other mediators.
