Family Mediation Practice.

Approach

Located in Hamilton and serving all of Ontario, Arnott Family Mediation focuses on child-centred and solution-focused family mediation. We work towards assisting families navigating separation or divorce in reaching fair and lasting parenting plans. By meeting families where they are, we can support healthy communication, collaborative decision-making and tailored solutions to meet the logistical and emotional needs of your family as you navigate this new chapter. Supporting the foundation for a positive co-parenting relationship moving forward.

As your lives evolve and your children grow, we also provide co-parenting mediation. A guided conversation to discuss and adjust changes in your parenting plan, as well as support the dynamics of a parental move, introduction of new partners, blended families, and new dynamics as they arise. Working with an impartial mediator, you will be able to navigate new dynamics, all while improving communication to create a healthier co-parenting relationship moving forward.
