Child-Centred Mediation for Separation & Parenting Matters
With more than 30 years’ experience working with children and families in special education, my path into family law mediation is grounded in a deep understanding of how conflict affects children. I have seen firsthand how unresolved parental disputes can undermine a child’s sense of safety, but also how respectful communication and structured support can restore stability and trust.
As a qualified family law mediator, trained cum laude through the NABFAM-accredited Mediation Academy and an accredited member of the South African Association of Mediators (SAAM), I offer a calm, neutral, and child-centred approach to mediation. I create a confidential, supportive space where difficult conversations can happen constructively, power imbalances are carefully managed, and children’s best interests remain central.
My role is not to take sides or impose outcomes, but to help families reach practical, sustainable agreements that support long-term wellbeing, especially for their children.
Why Choose Professional Mediation Over Litigation
Why Choose Professional Mediation Over Litigation
Mediation is a faster, more affordable, and less formal alternative to the courtroom. Instead of a judge imposing a decision, a neutral mediator helps you and your partner find a fair, collaborative solution that puts your family’s needs first, especially when children are involved.
Why Choose Mediation?
Constructive & Collaborative: Focuses on "win-win" solutions rather than legal battles.
Legally Recognised: Fully aligned with the Children’s Act and the Divorce Act to ensure your agreements are professional and binding.
Cost-Effective: Saves significant time and legal fees compared to traditional litigation.
Empowering: You maintain control over the outcome and your future.
