What is Family Mediation?

Family mediation is a voluntary process where an impartial and neutral mediator facilitates communication between family members in conflict to help them reduce conflict and reach mutually agreeable solutions. Mediation allows family members to work together to address concerns and find resolutions outside of the courtroom in a cost efficient manner where the parties come together at the table to make cooperative decisions about what is best for your family.

“I have been beyond impressed by the professionalism of our mediators. They are fair, listen to both parties, and are flexible regarding meeting times.”

– Beth O.

Renee did an excellent job during our mediation sessions and is a total professional. The sessions were difficult at times and Renee was a steadying and stable force throughout. Great communication overall as well.

R.M.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your involvement, patience, optimism and guidance in this process, which is perhaps the toughest period of my life. I would have gone nuts without a mediator like you.

J.G.
Angela helped us to stay calm and facilitated our discourse.

Emily
Virginia was very helpful and understanding.

Kidist B.
My experience with Virginia was informative and professional. It’s clear she not only has the knowledge but genuinely cares about her work and her clients. She made herself available on weekends and in the evenings if my schedule needed that. The sense of support I felt as a result of just being informed and guided is very much appreciated, especially during a challenging time.

Sharon B.
Virginia was one of the mediation instructors at Woody Mosten’s intensive 40 hour divorce mediation course last month and it was my absolute pleasure to meet her there. Virginia is a wonderful teacher who knows how to lead by example, moving her students forward by modeling effective mediation techniques. Virginia’s understated and compassionate affect encourages her students to ask questions and to express themselves freely and openly. I was also impressed with Virginia’s solid research background and understanding of the psychological underpinnings of attachment in families.

Anat Sideman-Schneider, J.D., MA.
I reached out to the Colin Family Mediation Group via e-mail initially as I wasn’t sure how to approach my current situation. Dr. Colin and I spoke shortly after and I explained to her my issue. She took the time to thoroughly listen and offered her professional advice. Even though she is not our mediator, I was completely impressed at her willingness to simply just help a stranger out — a very rare quality! I don’t know what the outcome might be but after talking to Dr. Colin, I have a better idea of the different routes I can pursue. I sincerely appreciate her taking the time to discuss this with me and very thankful for sharing her expertise.

Virginia was very helpful with working through a separation and divorce and not having to use a lawyer. She provided us with all the necessary tools to agree on our terms and file our own paperwork.
