I am a bilingual (French/English) Accredited Family Mediator with the Ontario Association of Family Mediators (OAFM) with a proven ability to communicate, listen, exercise sound judgment and discretion, work collaboratively with others and foster effective working relationships.
Coming from 25 years at Air Canada, in which 11 years were as a corporate negotiator, I have long since appreciated the role of mediation in resolving differences.
I also have experienced first-hand, the emotional roller coaster of my own litigated divorce and the impact it had on our son, who was 7 years old at the time. Going through it myself has certainly helped me to better understand the attendant feelings of confusion, mistrust, betrayal and anger that couples go through daily. The experience continues to teach me, that the ability to maintain civility in the face of divorce is an ongoing requirement if children are to grow up to become happy and healthy adults capable of entering into committed relationships themselves in the future.
One of the lessons I learned is that if we want our children to have a “fighting chance” at being happy and successful in their future relationships and adult lives, is that we first need to “Stop fighting”.
That is why I am so invested in helping separating parents mediate their differences and come to a mutually acceptable agreement.
I will work with you to explore options, to get the information you need to make good and informed decisions in order to reach your own agreements.
I am here to help you keep control of your future.
