Family Mediation In Kamloops
Supporting Families Through Conflict With Compassion, Experience, and Expertise
​Mediation is a confidential and collaborative process that helps individuals and families resolve conflicts in a respectful and constructive way. Unlike litigation or adversarial approaches, mediation focuses on mutual understanding, creative problem-solving, and long-term solutions that work for everyone involved. A neutral third party—your mediator—facilitates open communication, ensures all voices are heard, and helps guide the process toward a positive and workable resolution.
As a certified family mediator through Family Mediation Canada (FMC), Charlene brings over 30 years of experience in conflict resolution to every session. Her professional background spans a wide range of challenging and high-stakes environments, including Family Mediation, Conflict Coaching, Crisis Hostage Negotiation, Behavioural Counselling, Victim Services, and Applied Psychology and Counselling. This diverse expertise allows her to approach each case with empathy, insight, and practical tools for achieving real results.
Charlene believes in meeting clients exactly where they are—emotionally, mentally, and situationally. Her goal is always to understand your unique perspective and provide a pathway to resilience, strength, and successful resolution. Whether you are navigating the complexities of a family separation, facing decisions about elder care, or experiencing generational or cultural tension, she is here to support you with professionalism and care.
