Conflict Resolution
I offer transformative conflict resolution services — including mediation, facilitation, and coaching — for individuals, organizations, and communities navigating deep-rooted tensions, ruptures, or open conflict.
My approach is grounded in the belief that conflict, when held with care and intention, can be a generative force for healing, understanding, and systems change. Whether working with teams in distress, long-divided stakeholder groups, or communities grappling with historical injustices, I create spaces where people feel seen, heard, and respected — and where new possibilities for relationship and collaboration can emerge.
My work is informed by:
Principles of restorative justice
Trauma-informed practice
Cross-cultural dialogue
I support processes that surface not only the presenting issues, but also the underlying values, needs, and historical patterns that shape how conflict is experienced and expressed.
Through structured and emergent dialogue, I help participants move beyond blame and defensiveness toward shared understanding, accountability, and forward-looking action. Particularly in contexts where colonial histories, land and resource disputes, or intergenerational harm are at play, I center dignity, truth-telling, and a collective commitment to transformation over quick resolution.

Transformative conflict resolution is
a relational approach that prioritizes healing, mutual understanding, and personal empowerment over quick fixes or compromise. Rather than focusing solely on outcomes, it addresses the deeper roots of conflict—disconnection, miscommunication, and the breakdown of trust or dignity. Grounded in the principles of empowerment and recognition, it helps individuals regain agency and see one another with greater empathy, creating space for meaningful change. Especially effective in long-standing or identity-based conflicts, and in teams, this approach fosters reflection, accountability, and dialogue, offering a pathway to not just resolution, but to growth and the restoration of relationships grounded in dignity and shared purpose.
Restorative Justice is
a holistic, relationship-centered approach to addressing harm that prioritizes healing, accountability, and community repair over punishment. Rooted in Indigenous traditions that emphasize interconnectedness and collective responsibility, it brings together those who have caused harm, those impacted, and the wider community in dialogue to understand what happened and what is needed to make things right.
Through storytelling, acknowledgment, and collaborative decision-making, restorative justice aims not just to repair relationships, but to transform the underlying conditions that allowed harm to occur—offering a powerful, healing alternative to punitive systems.
