Conflict Repair Café: Family Edition

If the person you are in conflict with is willing to come, they are welcome. You can give them a sense of how I work with multiple family members here:
How do I get my son to do chores?
Can a 6 year old help decide how easy it is to access the axe?

If you're the only one coming from your family, no problem. Here's what that might look like:
Why are my kids determined to be miserable on vacation?
How do I get my son to eat more slowly?

And if you want to get a better sense of my approach and philosophy to conflict prevention and repair: StopFamilyConflict.com

We'll begin with introductions that include the conflict you'd like support with. I'll work with as many people as possible, connecting principles and insights to all the conflicts that have been shared so that everyone leaves with practical next steps.

I have no expectation that anyone would give me anything the first time they come. After that, I'm requesting that people give me the most they can without it straining their financial sustainability. What would meet my own financial sustainability needs is $15 - $40. In determining an amount, I ask that it not feel like a bargain, nor that it be so much that you wouldn't come because you feel resentful or stressed. If the lowest is amount is too much, give me what works for you, and if that amount is $0, you are still welcome.

## Frequently Asked Questions

💭 What if I don’t want to share personal details about my family?
That’s totally fine. You choose what to share and what to keep private. Even a small detail of a conflict is often enough to open up new possibilities. This is a confidential, judgment-free space.
💭 I’m worried people will judge me.
Every single person has family conflict. That’s part of being human. At the Conflict Repair Café, the focus is on empathy and curiosity—not judgment or evaluation.
💭 I’ve tried everything already. How will this be different?
You don’t have to come believing it will work. Think of it as an experiment. Sometimes one new perspective or question is all it takes to break through a stuck pattern.
💭 I don’t have the time or energy.
An hour here could save you countless hours of repeating the same fight. Most people leave feeling lighter and clearer—not weighed down with more to do.
💭 What if my conflict is too small… or too big?
No conflict is too minor or too overwhelming. If it matters to you, it’s welcome here. Everyday struggles can be just as powerful to explore as long-standing pain.
💭 I’d rather not speak in a group.
That’s okay. Sharing is always optional—you’re welcome to just observe. If you’d prefer private support, I also offer 1:1 sessions.
💭 What kinds of conflicts can I bring?
Anything involving family relationships: kids, parents, siblings, in-laws, adult children, or even patterns from the past that still weigh on you.
