Rogers Resolution Services

Hi, I'm Shelby! I’m a local mediator who helps neighbors resolve family, relationship, and workplace conflicts in a calm, structured way. Through my small business, Rogers Resolution Services, I offer mediation and conflict-resolution support tailored to your unique needs and help guide people through difficult conversations.

I work primarily with co-parents, partners, relatives, roommates, and teams who need help talking through decisions, routines, boundaries, or recurring disagreements. I also support workplaces and community groups facing communication challenges or breakdowns.

My role is neutral. I don’t give legal advice or take sides. I facilitate conversations, de-escalate tense situations, and help people reach practical and maintainable agreements they can feel comfortable with.

Services include:
• Family, community, and workplace mediation
• Co-parenting communication planning
• Conflict coaching (one-on-one support)
• Group and organizational facilitation
• Workplace and team communication support

Please feel free to reach out if you or a neighbor need help with repairing communication, setting boundaries, and/or creating a healthier dynamic at home or at work.

Thank you for reading, and I look forward to helping you!
