Founded by Rebecca Waclawyj, a neurodivergent, solo female entrepreneur Brighter Future Mediation service is rooted in both lived experience and professional expertise. Rebecca grew up as a child of divorced parents and later navigated her own separation and the family court system – experiences that deeply shaped her understanding of the emotional toll conflict can take, especially on children.

These personal challenges became the driving force behind Brighter Future Mediation. Rebecca’s mission is to create safe, empowering spaces for families and teams to resolve conflict with empathy, clarity, and practical solutions.

With over 15 years working within the criminal and family court system, Rebecca brings a wealth of insight into the realities people face when navigating complex, high-stakes disputes.

She has also worked as a consultant, delivering bespoke workplace projects to corporate and third sector organisations focused on:

• Conflict resolution, discrimination and harassment
• Building healthy, happy teams
• Inclusion and diversity

This unique blend of lived experience and professional practice informs every aspect of our approach.

Rebecca now leads a diverse and highly experienced team of family, workplace and civil mediators.

Together, we offer trauma-informed, inclusive mediation services that help resolve disputes outside of court—saving time, money, and emotional strain.
