OTTAWA FAMILY MEDIATORS
The Ottawa Chapter of the Ontario Association for Family Mediation provides this list of family mediators from the Ottawa region
as a service to prospective clients. Every mediator on the list is a member of the Ontario Association for Family Mediation and is subject to the Codes of Professional Conduct. Most mediators restrict their mediation practice to specific areas according to their training and expertise.
​
Accredited Family Mediator (AccFM): The OAFM’s Accredited Family Mediator (AccFM) designation has become the standard in Ontario, recognized by The Ministry of the Attorney General and in the Family Court System. The designation shows that a Family Mediator has proven experience in human services, has completed specific education and training, and upholds OAFM’s Standards of Practice. Accredited Members are required to also maintain a minimum of a million dollars of Errors and Omissions (E&O) Insurance covering Family Mediation and complete 10 hours of Continued Professional Development, including 5 hours on screening for Domestic Violence.
​
Accredited Elder Mediator (AccEM): "Elder mediators" are professionally trained mediators who possess skilful, current knowledge about the types of issues that are particularly likely to be associated with older adults. In response to the identified need to be ready to deal with an aging population, the Ontario Association for Family Mediation commenced providing Elder Mediation Training in 2016 in order to increase capacity of our mediation community and eventual trainers.
​
Child Protection (CP) Mediator: This designation means that an accredited family mediator has completed all course requirements, and has submitted an application and been approved by The Ontario Child Protection Mediation Roster Program as a Child Protection Mediator.
​
Associate Member: Our Associates are Members who are in the process of becoming Mediators and have not sought Accreditation Status. Associate members must abide by the OAFM Policies and Standards of Practice.
​
We are unable to recommendations on specific mediators. We encourage you to speak directly to individual mediators for more information about their qualifications and experience.
​
In the unfortunate event where you are not satisfied with the services provided by any mediator on this list, complaints may be directed to the Ontario Association for Family Mediation at 1-844-989-3026.
