Co-Parenting Therapy
If you and your co-parent are unable to work together collaboratively or communicate positively about your shared children, then the Shared Parenting Support Program (SPSP) might be the right fit where we will work together to put aside anger, resentment, old grudges, and all those accumulated negative feelings that get in the way of being effective co-parents.
No matter how difficult your relationship with your co-parent, your children need you both to find a better way.
Parenting Support Program (SPSP)
Through the program, you will have the opportunity to learn how to communicate as co-parents, putting aside your anger and conflict in the best interest of your children.
The communication skills you will learn will reduce the amount of time you talk to each other and at the same time will provide a structured, safe way to communicate.
The program is very structured and requires each co-parent, and possibly stepparents, to attend 8-12 weekly 50-minute sessions. If you have been involved in family court or mediation, it is important that custody court decisions are finalized when beginning the program and you do not have intentions on returning to court during the program to give a sense of trust and stability while working together through the Shared Parenting Support Program.
Upon completion of the program, you each will receive a Certificate of Completion that can be provided to court if co-parenting therapy was court mandated. It is important to note that I am not an officer of the court and will not attend court or provide any other information on either co-parent’s behalf to the court.
