Danielle Mead, LMFT
Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Mediator
With 19 years of experience as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and over three decades in the behavioral health field, Danielle Mead brings a rare combination of clinical insight and practical mediation skills to some of the most emotionally complex disputes families face. She specializes in divorce and family mediation, working with couples and families navigating high-conflict separations, custody disagreements, and co-parenting transitions.
Danielle offers mediation services throughout Florida, via secure Zoom video sessions, and works with both represented clients and those navigating mediation without an attorney.
Her therapeutic background allows her to see beyond the immediate dispute to the underlying dynamics driving it: communication breakdowns, unresolved grief, and the fear that often fuels conflict during divorce. This perspective helps clients move past entrenched positions toward agreements that are not only legally sound but also sustainable for the family's long-term well-being, especially where children are involved.
Known for a calm, steady presence in the room, Danielle creates a space where even the most guarded parties feel heard a critical first step in de-escalating high-conflict cases. She draws on decades of clinical training to manage heightened emotion without losing sight of the practical outcomes both parties need.
Danielle holds a Master's degree in Counseling from Webster University and is licensed as an LMFT in Florida and North Carolina. She is a member of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT) and a Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Mediator.
Danielle offers a free 15-minute consultation to discuss whether mediation is right for your situation. Contact her directly to get started: danielle@midfloridamediation.com
Hourly rate: $375. Flat-fee, all-inclusive mediation packages also available.

<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal" dir="ltr">I believe lasting resolutions come from understanding, not just compromise. With 19 years as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and decades in the behavioral health field, I bring a clinical lens to mediation one that looks beneath the surface of a dispute to the emotions, fears, and unmet needs driving it. In high-conflict divorce and family cases, this matters: agreements built solely on legal terms often unravel, while those grounded in genuine understanding tend to hold.</p> <p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal" dir="ltr">My sessions are structured but not rigid. I create a space where both parties feel truly heard, which is often the first step toward de-escalating conflict that has built up over months or years. I don't rush toward a settlement for its own sake; I work to ensure both sides can live with, and honor, what they agree to.</p> <p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal" dir="ltr">Where children are involved, I keep their wellbeing at the center of every conversation, helping parents separate their conflict with each other from their shared responsibility to their kids.</p> <p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal" dir="ltr">My goal in every case is the same: to help people move from entrenched positions to workable solutions, with dignity intact on both sides.</p>
