What Is Mediation?
Mediation,
is a voluntary and confidential process, in which a neutral third party,
the mediator, helps people in conflict communicate and negotiate. While
conflict is often stressful to relationships, it can be also provide an
opportunity to examine and strengthen relationships as parties learn to
work together. A mediator can help you resolve difficult issues while
preserving and strengthening the relationship.
The mediator
does not take sides, nor make judgments or decisions for the participants
in the mediation process. The mediator helps the participants to understand
each other's needs and to find a resolution that meets these needs.
The mediation process can be especially helpful for people who believe their differences are so great that they will never be able to agree. Mediators are trained to help move beyond entrenched, conflicting positions. Mediators help people communicate in a safe and reasonable way.
