Co-Parenting Coaching
Whether you come in as a team or separately, you will learn strategies to:
- communicate more effectively
- reduce conflict and get on team kiddo
- make agreements & decisions that prioritize your kid
- create consistent routines in and between both homes
- be a united front and keep your kid out of the middle
- hold boundaries, and increase accountability to your co-parenting team
- become more attuned to your kid’s needs, feelings and experiences, so they are happy and secure
- create a parenting plan that prioritizes and grows with your kid
- create a clear, caring script to tell your kids about the divorce and reduce trauma.
It’s not the divorce that hurts the kids, it’s how you do divorce.
MY APPROACH
Going to co-parenting therapy is the most important gift you can give to your kids. You may be seeking support right now because you're worried that your separation or divorce could hurt them. Transitioning from being married to co-parenting can be confusing, overwhelming, and filled with fear and anxiety. We're here to support you in finding clarity and a hopeful path forward.
I provide a personalized approach to support your unique co-parenting needs. You’ll gain the knowledge and tools to confidently navigate your co-parenting journey while raising secure, well-adjusted children. Because they deserve the best, and so do you!
As your therapist, I’ll guide you toward becoming a cooperative co-parenting team. Together, you’ll learn to let go of past hurts to reduce triggers, criticism, and defensiveness. We’ll explore how your attachment style shapes your relationship with your co-parent and develop more effective communication skills.
By moving from conflict to cooperation, you’ll make decisions that truly prioritize your kids, keeping them out of the middle and helping them feel safe and understood. Children thrive when they have at least one secure relationship with a caregiver, and my coaching will teach you what your child needs to be secure and happy, even in the midst of adversity.
You will learn how to build the secure foundation your kids need to thrive, based on the Six Cs of Cooperative Co-Parenting—Commitment, Collaboration, Clarity, Consistency, Connection, and Community. These principles are rooted in Attachment Theory and are detailed in my book, Cooperative Co-Parenting for Secure Kids.
Together, we’ll build a safe, nurturing environment where your children can flourish across both homes.
