Co-parenting can be extremely challenging. Even when married, couples often have significant conflict about how best to parent their children. When a contentious divorce takes place conflicts about parenting and the sharing of children often escalate. Children suffer the consequences of being used unwittingly as pawns and parents worry terribly about what is happening to the children when they are with the other parent. Minor commitments that are violated become patterns that destroy trust between parents and create tension which children feel. Parents negative statements about the other parent inadvertently destroy a child’s self-esteem because children identify with both parents. All of these things happen when there are two parents that love their children more than words can express.

My role as a neutral co-parent counselor is to listen deeply to the concerns expressed by both parents, filter it through my knowledge of child development, parenting, and co-parenting, to help parents understand best practices and work through what might be getting in the way of acting in their children’s best interest. Children thrive when parents are able to co-parent respectfully without conflict or tension. I would be honored to help you achieve this goal.
