Here for the messy, human moments.

When conflict takes hold, I help workplaces, community groups, schools and whānau repair harm and rebuild relationships.

Restorative practice | Family mediation


Before the kōrero, the breath.

Conflict rarely stays small. Trust erodes, people stop talking, a team splits into sides. By the time you're looking for help, it's already costing more than time.

I've spent years holding some of the hardest conversations there are — separated parents, high conflict, safety on the line. That’s the steadiness I bring into every restorative process.

You don't need to have it all worked out. A short message is enough to start.
