Mindful Mediator

Spring! I’m so glad you’re here! It’s time of renewal and growth.

Dear Friends and Clients,

Thank you for your referrals. I appreciate your support and confidence in me!

I am currently not accepting new clients at this time. I am completing graduate work so that I can add counseling to my mediation practice.

I am delighted to share that in September 2024 I will continue my educational journey at WLU - Martin Luther University College. The Master’s in Spiritual Care & Psychotherapy will enable me to completely shift from law into a therapeutic practice + family mediation. Looking forward to sharing this journey and my learnings with you!

Finding joy in the divorced, single life…I’m posting photos of three items representing activities that bring me joy…gardening, trying new recipes, and singing!

Once again, Mindful Mediator is excited to support the Coldest Night of the Year fundraiser. Join us Sat Feb 24th, raising some $$ to address local homelessness initiatives as we walk together.

Waterloo friends: On Saturday, Oct. 28, 1–3pm, there will be a bake sale in UpTown Waterloo benefiting the Palestine Children's Relief Fund (pcrf.net), which provides medical care to children in Palestine.

Great energy at the annual today Waterloo Park. Thanks to the organizers and volunteers who guided us through the park, provided water and cheered us on. Donations are still being accepted at

Mediation is an unregulated profession with a voluntary accreditation process. As a fully accredited family mediator, I can attest to the education and training standards required by the OAFM. As a former mediation participant in my own separation a few years ago, I encourage those seeking mediation to do their homework before hiring a mediator. Here are a few tips to help you choose the right person.

Every now and then it’s good to take time and rest, recharge and relax. The last 10 days before school resumes is always a special time for me & my daughter. This year, we spent time in Midland/Penentag, The Blue Mountains/Meaford. One of the highlights was our trail ride at Wingsong Ranch - a spectacular experience. What are your favourite summer ‘23 R&R memories?

Going through a separation is challenging but you don’t have to go through it alone. The mediation process offers support and coaching along the way. Reach out for more information. We’re here to help.
