Our Child Consultant
Child consultants are specially trained child psychologists who are involved in the child-inclusive mediation process. The role of the child consultant is to speak with each parent separately, then if deemed appropriate to speak with each child separately. Feedback is then prepared for and provided to the parents during the mediation.
