Mediation to Overcome Conflict
Mediation is an efficient dispute resolution process used to overcome conflict. It takes place outside the courtroom, in a completely confidential, but less formal atmosphere. Mediation is valuable when the goal is preserving the relationship between the people involved:
- Separating spouses or partners
- Parents working on a parenting plan
- Family members in transition
- Neighbors having a disagreement
- Employers and employees
Cat Zavis is a skilled, experienced mediator who helps people in conflict reach durable, co-created resolutions that value each person’s needs. Through mediation’s less adversarial approach, individuals are heard and understood; they are empowered to advocate for themselves; and they are freed from whatever stands in the way of resolution.
Cat can help people solve most civil disputes through mediation. Whether you have a problem with your former spouse, your neighbor’s new fence, or your landlord’s interpretation of your lease, mediation can be a viable option. Mediation allows both parties to express their views and needs and, with Cat’s help, to understand the other person’s needs as well.
