Why Choosing A Social Worker Is Your Best Choice For Mediation

Social Workers are educated on many aspects of family dynamics. We take training in family systems and understand how your own upbringing can impact how you are as an adult in intimate relationships and how it may impact how you parent. We also take lots of courses on addiction, family violence, intergenerational trauma, grief and loss, mental wellness, childhood development, risk assessments and psychology. This training allows Social Workers to work with clients in a more holistic way so relationships are maintained and supported. Social Workers are skilled at creating goals and listening to clients’ ideas about how to reach those goals. We are trained to assess for violence, child or elder abuse, and mental health issues and can help clients obtain the resources they need. We value the voice of children and strive hard to include their input when important decisions are being made. We understand families experience many crises, such as separation/divorce, and sometimes that cannot be prevented. However, how you manage it will make a difference in your overall health as well as your loved ones. Social Workers get the whole picture…not just one side of the argument.
