Dr Robert Shaw

Dr. Robert Shaw has worked as a mediator since 2017. He’s a registered psychotherapist and brings a strong understanding of people and relationships to his work. Most of his mediations are done over Zoom, which clients find works well for discussing options and making agreements. Evening and weekend sessions are available.

It’s now rare for both people to be in the same room—or even the same Zoom call—during a mediation. Like a good dentist, a mediator helps you get through the tough parts with as little stress as possible. It can help to focus on understanding and kindness, and thus open the way to peace and harmony for your children. Like many parents, you could find that parallel parenting works better than co-parenting in your situation. Your mediator is there to support you in finding the best path forward and to ensure your agreement is clear, comprehensive and practical.
