Welcome to my website. I have been mediating since 1993 and continue to enjoy this work. As a mediator I help people to resolve disputes in their own way and to their own satisfaction. Conflict can be both draining and perplexing, and I commit myself to working patiently and persistently for as long as it takes to find a solution.
My mediation practice includes commercial disputes, the workplace, divorce, families, schools, colleges and universities, the NHS and professional complaints. I also offer conflict coaching: a chance to talk one-to-one about difficult situations and work out the best way forward.
I try to challenge myself every year to improve my practice. It is a unique privilege to be invited into people’s conflict, and they deserve nothing less than the best I can do. I would like this site to be useful, so it includes articles and materials I have written as well as useful links.
I also teach mediation and am course leader on Strathclyde Law School’s MSc in Mediation and Conflict Resolution.
