Practice Description:
If you find yourself in a conflict where you feel stuck, overwhelmed, and unsure of how to proceed, I may be able to offer support. I help people shift from polarized positions to mutual understanding while maintaining awareness of power dynamics, boundaries, desires, capacities, and needs. Ultimately, I want to help people better understand themselves, their relationships, and their communities through the conflicts they experience. My approach arises from the lineages of abolition, restorative/transformative justice, and relationship anarchy.
Approach to Practice / Form of Mediation:
I offer community mediation services: support for specific conflicts and relational ruptures between friends, family members, neighbors, and anyone else experiencing a conflict within their community.
I do not currently offer court-adjacent mediation services.
My approach is collaborative and trauma/equity-informed. It emphasizes deep compassion, strong power analysis, and a healthy dose of pragmatism and realistic expectations. I use trauma-informed somatic and insight practices, conflict resolution interventions, and decolonial anthropological frameworks to help people better understand their context and their conflicts.
