With over 25 years of experience in Finance and more than two decades in Social Services, I bring a unique blend of financial acumen and compassionate practice to my work in mediation and consultancy. My previous work as a Financial Counsellor inspired me to become a mediator—committed to helping families navigate separation with dignity, clarity, and reduced reliance on adversarial legal processes, therefore reducing the financial impact. I support individuals through divorce and property settlements, offering a neutral, child-focused approach that empowers clients to co-create future-oriented solutions. My deep understanding of Family and Domestic Violence, coupled with strong connections to local support agencies, allows me to provide timely referrals and holistic care when needed. I am also skilled in Consumer Law and assist with disputes involving product or service quality, financial hardship and credit-related issues, contractual misunderstandings, refund claims and matters requiring restorative approaches.
