Hello

I'm Siân Dyce. I was inspired to establish Family Talks following my own experiences as a reluctant member of the sandwich generation. I've been where you are. I know how hard it is to navigate ageing parents, complex family dynamics, transitions to aged care and estate administration while also trying to work and raise a family.

​

I understand that everyone wants the best for their families, but that sometimes there are different ideas about what 'the best' looks like. I know how tempers flare while hearts are breaking.

​

I also know that courageous conversations now create clarity and certainty in the future. I'm passionate about guiding families through difficult conversations so that they can prevent conflict and preserve relationships.

​

I am an experienced mediator and bring empathy and insight to my work. I have a graduate diploma in family dispute resolution, am an AMDRAS accredited mediator, a certified family group conference facilitator and have an advanced certificate in elder mediation.​
