Sileta Bell, MMFT
Registered Domestic Mediator
Sileta Bell moves through the worlds of family conflict resolution, mental health advocacy, and community development with steadfast clarity and a strong sense of purpose. Originally from Anguilla, British West Indies, she brings a global perspective to her work—grounded in the belief that family wellbeing is the cornerstone of thriving communities.
Her experience across federal, state, and international initiatives reflects a lifelong commitment to building systems that promote peace, dignity, and equity.
Through her research, she aims to develop new modalities for the field of conflict resolution and design ethically sound trainings that prepare practitioners across disciplines—legal, therapeutic, faith-based, and beyond—to navigate interpersonal conflict with skill and compassion.
In the spring of 2025, Sileta traveled to the United Nations in Geneva, where she joined fellow conflict resolution researchers from Nova Southeastern University. There, she explored frameworks for sustainable peace and considered how principles that help nations reconcile might also help families heal.
Today, Sileta brings that same philosophy into her mediation work, guiding couples, coparents, and families through marriage, divorce, separation, and uncertainty with dignity, compassion, and intention.
Her vision for Georgia Family and Mediation is both practical and profound: to restore peace at the most personal level, knowing that when families find balance, communities flourish.

Currently pursuing a PhD in Conflict Analysis and Resolution at Nova Southeastern University, my research examines post-divorce conflict and its impact on co-parenting dynamics and child mental health outcomes. My goal is to identify and design family interventions that promote healthier adjustment and stability during and after divorce.
