Mediation Trainers
Our team of mediation trainers brings diverse experiences and styles to the 40-Hour Basic Mediation training, the 30-Hour Advanced Mediation training, and the Child Protective Services [CPS] Mediation training. Our goal is to deliver content that meets Texas state statutory requirements while equipping participants with the practical skills and tools needed to effectively mediate. Mediation trainings are on Zoom and include extensive opportunities to interact and roleplay.
