    I am an experienced court‑appointed mediator, accredited in both Brazil and Ireland. Since 2015, I have been helping families and individuals resolve conflicts through mediation, with a strong focus on family law, divorce, and co‑parenting matters. My approach is practical, respectful, and solution‑focused, ensuring that every party feels heard and supported throughout the process.

    General Profile

    I am a bilingual (Portuguese and English) accredited mediator with extensive experience in family and civil mediation. Since 2015, I have been actively mediating cases within the Brazilian judicial system and, more recently, in Ireland.
    I started my mediation career as a court‑appointed mediator through the Court of Justice of Minas Gerais (TJMG), Brazil, handling numerous family and parenthood cases and developing strong skills in helping people reach fair and lasting agreements. Over the years, I have specialized in divorce, co‑parenting, and pre‑process conciliation, always working with empathy, neutrality, and a focus on solutions.
    I also hold a formal academic background in Law, which enriches my understanding of the legal context surrounding mediation processes, while strictly maintaining my neutral role as a mediator.
    Today, I combine years of practical mediation experience with international accreditation in Ireland, offering a professional, culturally sensitive, and results‑driven approach for those seeking constructive conflict resolution.
