Meet Rosemary Gattuso – Family Mediator, Restorative Justice Practitioner & Overthinking Rewriter

With over 15 years of experience in alternative dispute resolution, Rosemary Gattuso brings a deeply human and heart-centred approach to mediation. Specialising in family mediation and restorative justice, she supports individuals and families through some of life’s most difficult transitions with compassion, clarity, and respect.

Trained in advanced mediation at Harvard, Rosemary is especially passionate about child-focused practices, ensuring children’s wellbeing remains central during separation and family restructuring.

Rosemary also lends her expertise to Restorative Justice panels across various Commonwealth agencies, including:

• 
  

  The Defence Force Ombudsman

  
  


• 
  

  The National Redress Scheme

  
  


• 
  

  The Territories Stolen Generations Scheme

  
  

As a seasoned facilitator and speaker, Rosemary runs workshops for school communities, mental health practitioners, mediators, and corporate groups—always promoting strengths-based, trauma-informed practices.

Her ongoing study in child development, trauma, and neuroscience continues to inform her work, deepening her understanding of the human experience and enriching the way she teaches, mediates, and facilitates healing conversations.

A self-confessed chronic overthinker, Rosemary has transformed her own mental spirals into a practice of strengths-based reflection—and now empowers others to do the same through her writing, speaking, and online content.
