Mediators who work online with Massachusetts clients

These mediators say they work with Massachusetts clients online. They are on other states’ official rosters (shown on each listing), not Massachusetts’s. Where they serve is their own statement. Sorted: placements first (paid ones are labeled), then most complete profile.

Court-ordered case? Courts may require a mediator from their own approved list for court-ordered cases. Check your court’s rules, or see how mediation works in Massachusetts.

Court-connected mediation in Massachusetts: Massachusetts courts approve mediation programs rather than individual mediators, and each court department lists its approved programs. The statewide rule that sets neutral qualifications (SJC Rule 1:18) was not reviewed.

Private mediation in Massachusetts: No state license for private mediators was found in the sources reviewed. A statute makes mediation communications confidential when the mediator has 30 hours of training plus experience or program affiliation, or is court-appointed.
