Divorce Mediation To Support Families in Canberra
Mediation provides a supportive and effective way to resolve conflicts, helping individuals navigate disputes with the guidance of a neutral third party. For separated families in Canberra, family mediation—also known as Family Dispute Resolution (FDR)—offers a positive alternative to court proceedings, especially when it comes to parenting arrangements.
At Simple Separation, we believe mediation is a more peaceful and child-centered approach to resolving parenting disputes. It encourages cooperation, reduces stress, and helps families find solutions that work for everyone involved.
Mediation
Every situation is unique, which is why our experienced mediators take the time to understand your needs and recommend the best mediation approach for you:
Joint Mediation – Both parties come together in the same online session to discuss and resolve issues.
Shuttle Mediation – Each party remains in a separate online room while the mediator facilitates discussions.
Video or Telephone Mediation – Convenient remote options to suit your circumstances.

*Please be advised Australian Family Law makes it compulsory to attempt Family Dispute Resolution (mediation) before filing for parenting orders in court. Section 60i Certificates are required to lodge a children’s matter with the Family Court of Australia. If you are unsuccessful in mediation, you will be provided with a S60i certificate.
