Maryland Circuit Court Roster Mediator | OADR Accredited

Divorce is one of the most consequential decisions you'll ever navigate. I'm here to make sure you don't have to navigate it alone…or in a courtroom.
I'm a credentialed mediator serving Montgomery County and the greater DC Metro area, approved by both the Maryland Circuit Court and District Court systems. My practice is built on a simple conviction: most couples going through divorce don't need a judge to decide their future. They need a structured, neutral space to work through what matters — parenting, finances, property — and reach agreements they can actually live with.
Before focusing on mediation full-time, I spent three decades negotiating complex agreements between parties with competing interests. That background shapes how I work: methodical, patient, and focused on what's actually driving the conflict rather than just the surface dispute.
I offer a free initial consultation - no pressure, no commitment - so you can decide whether mediation is the right path before taking any next steps.

What Is Family Mediation?
A voluntary, confidential process where a neutral mediator helps family members resolve disagreements—about parenting, finances,or relationships—without going to court.
Why Choose Mediation?
Significantly more efficient and cost-effective than litigation.
Private and controlled, rather than dictated by a courtroom.
Allows you—not a judge—to shape the outcome.
Reduces conflict and supports healthier co-parenting dynamics.
Produces durable agreements that stand the test of time.
