Meet Vanessa.
Hi, I'm Vanessa Tharen. I am a certified Family Mediator with accreditation from the Ontario Association of Family Mediators or OAFM for short. I am passionate about seeing families allow themselves another chance at a positive life after separation and divorce. I am here to help conflicting couples by mitigating the
hardships that are often involved in the process that follows two parents deciding to move on apart.
​
I believe that co-parenting families can flourish beautifully, and I live by the saying that two happy parents apart are always better than two unhappy parents together.
​
Going through mediation with me is a problem-solving hack for families who are determined to find a resolution that keeps life on the right track. I have specialized my practice in assisting parents in developing effective and creative Parenting Plans to reduce conflict in their co-parenting relationships.
