Whether you come in as a team or separately, you will learn strategies to:
- create effective communication skills
- reduce conflict
- make agreements, decisions, and a parenting plan that prioritizes 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 feel seen, heard, and understood
MY APPROACH
Your kids are probably the most important people in your life, and the possibility of them being hurt by your separation or divorce may be why you are seeking support right now. Going from married to co-parenting can feel confusing, overwhelming, and full of fear and anxiety. I can help you find clarity and a path forward.
I offer you a tailored approach to your co-parenting family needs. You can gain the information and tools you need to move forward into your co-parenting relationship with the confidence of knowing you will continue to raise secure and well-adjusted kids. They deserve it and so do you!
I will guide you to become a cooperative co-parenting team, so you can create a secure foundation for your kids in two homes. You will learn how to untangle yourself from the past so you can heal and decrease triggers, criticism, and defensiveness. Understand how your attachment style affects how you and your co-parent relate and learn more effective communication strategies. When you move from conflict to cooperation you will be able to make decisions and agreements that prioritize your kids. When you work together as a united front you will keep them out of the middle. You will learn how to become more attuned and connected to your kid’s needs and help them process their own feelings. A kid with at least one secure relationship with a caregiver can thrive.
I devised the six Cs of cooperative co-parenting: commitment, collaboration, clarity, consistency, connection, and community. These are grounded in secure attachment research and form the basis of my book Cooperative Coparenting for Secure Kids: The Attachment Theory Guide to Raising Kids in Two Homes (link to book page). Secure attachment refers to the relationship between a parent and a young child that provides the child with a stable and secure basis from which to negotiate life going forward. My coaching draws on these principles to help you create a safe haven for your kids in two homes.
