Last Wishes and Emotionally Challenging Mediations

Posted by mbcstaff

Mediators often work with very strong emotion and in emotionally challenging contexts. In this interview mediator Sierra Wells shares her expertise in mediating when there are very strong emotions, such as with the family of a young mother who died unexpectedly about how her last wishes should be carried out, and in child protection mediations after child removal has occured. 

This conversation was part of Conflict Resolution Week 2021 where we discussed different kinds of conflict that #YouCouldMediate. You can watch the rest of the interviews here. You can find Sierra Wells' profile on our Child Protection Mediator Roster here.
