Let’s be honest—some of the hardest moments in this journey come down to conversations that don’t go the way we hoped.

Whether it’s with a child, a biological parent, a caseworker, or even someone on your own support team, it can feel overwhelming to know what to say—or how to say it.

This session will give you practical, trauma-informed tools to:

  • Navigate conflict without escalating it
  • Communicate in ways that reduce defensiveness
  • Understand what’s underneath behaviors and reactions
  • Repair relationships when things don’t go as planned

You’ll walk away with simple frameworks and real-life scripts you can actually use—right when it matters most.

This training is for anyone supporting the same child from different roles and wanting to do that with less conflict and more connection.



Jennifer Dexter

Dexter Mediation

Jennifer is an accomplished mediator with 20 years experience.  After graduating from Law School, Jennifer began her mediation career mediating workplace conflict, negotiating contracts, family conflicts, and other community disputes.  Over the years, Jennifer began to concentrate on the family dynamic and the inherent conflict therein.

In her capacity as a certified mediator, Jennifer utilizes restorative mediation (restorative justice and mediation) to address conflict in an innovative way. Her approach is a specialized avenue to conflict resolution that integrates therapeutic principles and restorative principals  into the mediation process.  Unlike traditional mediation, which might focus solely on negotiating practical settlements, Jennifer guides people to delve deeper. It acknowledges and addresses the underlying emotional dynamics, communication patterns, past hurts, and individual needs that often fuel and sustain conflict.
