Mediator interest in reflective practice, a systematic process by which we think about or experience what we are doing in practice and why, is on the rise, evidenced by increased articles and professional organizations supporting its use. This growing interest signals its potential for integration into the mediation field, similar to its trajectory in more developed helping professions. By reviewing relevant literature and practice, this article defines and discusses reflective practice as it pertains to mediator learning and development, examines its strengths and challenges, and encourages needed research and practice in this area.
