Hi, I’m Mikki McGill, Owner and Senior Mediator at Great River Mediations.
I look forward to learning more about your situation and helping you determine your next right step.

What We’ll Talk About
During our conversation we will:
- Discuss what prompted you to reach out about mediation at this time
- Explore whether there may be helpful resources I can connect you with
- Determine whether mediation may be a good fit for your circumstances and help you identify your next step
This brief conversation is informational and pressure-free. The goal is simply to help you understand your options.
By the end of our conversation, you will have a clearer sense of what a healthy next step could look like.
How to Prepare
Please set aside a quiet, private space for our conversation.
You don’t need to prepare anything formal but…you can think about:
- What prompted you to reach out now
- The biggest questions or concerns on your mind
- Whether both partners may be open to mediation
If both partners are open to mediation, you are welcome to attend this first conversation together.
Many couples find it helpful to hear the same information at the same time before deciding on next steps.
You are not obligated to both show up to this appointment but we need to meet both of you before moving forward.
A Quick Reminder
Divorce, separation and parenting apart (also called coparenting) can feel overwhelming. You do not have to figure everything out today.
This conversation is simply a first step toward clarity.
Need to Reschedule?
If you need to change your appointment, you may do so using the link in your confirmation email. Rescheduling must be done at least 24 hours in advance.
Your initial consultation is complimentary and reserves time that would otherwise be available for a paid appointment.
If something unexpected comes up, please let me know as soon as possible so the time can be offered to another family who may need it.
To reschedule your consultation, a nominal non-refundable rescheduling fee will be charged, which can be applied toward future services.
Take a Breath
Many people arrive to this call unsure of what comes next. That is completely normal.
This brief conversation is simply a place to slow things down and begin finding clarity about your next steps.
Many people tell me they feel calmer within the first few minutes of the conversation.
We’re looking forward to meeting you!
-Mikki
