| Abstract: | The mediator (hereafter as: mdr/s.) has to monitor and manage his or her own inner thoughts, emotions, and feelings throughout the process to avoid their negative influence on the mediation (as: mdn.) outcomes. Peer consultation offers one approach that can be effectively used to support the mdr.'s inquiry into practice dilemmas and invite self-knowing benefiting the mdr. and the parties in the mdn., as well. The effectiveness of a group consultation process, however, depends on the development of "a holding environment", providing a confidential and a safe space. The mdn. process is improved when the mdr. can sustain relational and emotional tension within herself/himself and btw. the parties long enough to develop new actions and understandings. |
