Family Mediation Associates - Grover Beach, California

Joe was very helpful, supportive, and led the mediation with the utmost honesty and assistance. He was able to conduct both parties away from conflict and reassure us that he had the best interest of both parties. He was readily available and very quick to respond via text/email and I would recommend him to anyone going through this tough situation

Joe is truly exceptional at what he does. My sister and I reached out for family mediation, feeling stuck in a cycle of miscommunication that was straining our relationship. From the very first session, Joe created an atmosphere of trust and understanding, helping us navigate difficult conversations with patience and empathy.

What stood out the most was how he tailored his approach to meet our specific needs, giving us tools to not only resolve conflicts but also deepen our connection. Thanks to Joe, my sister and I are well on our way to rebuild and strengthen our bond.

I can’t recommend Joe enough for anyone seeking a thoughtful and skilled family mediator.

There are not enough words to express how grateful I am to have found Joe. He creates a safe, calm, and supportive environment. The results of couple’s therapy have exceeded my expectations. Our relationship has drastically improved with better dialogue and fewer arguments. My partner and I have a newfound love, respect, appreciation, and admiration for one another. I can’t thank Joe enough!

We met with Joe over a family situation. Joe is kind, thoughtful, and astute in his observations. He put us at ease and we felt we were in good hands. He was meticulous in his mediations and able to communicate and work with different personalities with a gentle hand. I would not hesitate to recomend Joe Ferra for family troubles.

I have seen many different therapist and nobody has compared to Joe. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable in many different areas, but he’s extremely attentive and really cares about his Patients. I have been speaking with him for almost a year on a weekly basis. He always checks in on me even during the time we don’t have sessions. I can’t thank Joe enough for everything he’s done for me and my family.

After months of stagnant and high conflict meetings FMA mediated a session. The session was highly effective, efficient and encouraging. My former partner and I both left with a clearer vision of how we could be better coparents going forward as well as many of the major items we needed to resolve were addressed.
We feel so grateful for our mediator Joe and family mediation associates. <3

Joe has been a godsend in every way. We feel very lucky to have found him. He is extremely intuitive, you don't need to explain too much, he just gets it. He can "see" you, and know how to help you move forward immediately. Also, I read someone else's comment mentioning that he has a strong sense of fairness, and I second that. He is there to equally represent all parties and help you individually as well as together. I have been looking for someone like Joe for a long time.

Had a great experience with Joe. Every session, he creates an environment of trust. He transmits a strong sense of fairness. Definitely recommended.
