Professional mediator. Anne Lightsey. Most of us dread conflicts, so we tend to avoid certain people, conversations, and situations. When avoiding no longer seems like your best option, you might be ready for mediation. Mediation is a voluntary and confidential way for people to meet, discuss their concerns, and make decisions together, with the assistance of an impartial mediator. As a professional mediator, I do not advise, decide, or direct outcomes; I assist and support people in conflict as they work toward their own resolution. I have been a certified mediator since 1991. Go to www.annelightsey.com if you'd like to learn more.
