Transform Chaos into Calm
There is a better way to resolve conflict.
SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT
Conflict is stressful because it triggers difficult emotions both due to the current situation and also due to our histories and life experiences. As a result our ability to come up with and listen to creative solutions is often shut down and we end up thinking in terms of a win or lose, black or white proposition.
When we’re triggered we tend to regress and our habitual patterns of communicating with each other don’t work. Help from a neutral third party and a new approach is needed. With the right support, we create the possibility for effective communication, leading to conflict-resolution solutions created by both parties, which is empowering. When the parties to conflict feel seen, heard and empowered the result is a solution which is sustainable over time.
FIND YOUR PATH FORWARD
Tanya Shimer has been a certified mediator for over a decade, helping to resolve conflicts and come up with equitable solutions in divorce, probate and small business disputes.

CONTROL YOUR OUTCOME
CONFIDENTIAL DISCUSSIONS, EFFECTIVE RESOLUTIONS
Mediation is a process where a neutral third party, the mediator(s), acts as an intermediary during a confidential settlement discussion and attempts to assist the parties in developing options for an amicable resolution of the dispute. Mediation offers an effective, confidential alternative to litigation that is both time and cost efficient.
Mediation is empowering and makes common sense because it allows the people who are actually involved in the dispute to have control over how it gets resolved by coming to a common solution through discussion and compromise.
Whether it is a divorce, a business problem, a contract dispute or a probate issue, unresolved conflict is usually destructive and costly. At the same time, moving through conflict and coming up with an agreement can help the parties feel empowered and ultimately become catalysts for progress and growth. Tanya Shimer is dedicated to providing constructive, efficient solutions for dispute resolution.
In addition to being certified mediator, Tanya has also trained in Non Violent Communication, Compassionate Inquiry and other forms of trauma therapy. With these tools she is adept at bringing the parties out of their reactive states and into presence where creative solutions can be found.
