I became a mediation enthusiast about 30 years ago when a client told me about a mediation service which he had used and it changed the way that he and his former wife dealt with each other and helped their children have a healthy relationship with each of them. From there, I began to make enquiries about mediation and initially trained with Family Mediation West, now part of Relationships Scotland, and thereafter with CALM. I have been mediating with both organisations for over 20 years, including sibling mediations, three generation mediations and mediations where the parties are of different nationalities.
