Co-Parent Counseling

Supporting Parents. Strengthening Families.

Parenting after separation or divorce can be one of life’s most challenging transitions.
Even when your relationship changes, your shared role as parents continues. Co-parent counseling offers a compassionate, structured space to improve communication, reduce conflict, and build a healthier foundation for your family.

Whether you’re co-parenting cooperatively, struggling with high conflict, or participating in court-ordered counseling, this process can help you find calm, clarity, and confidence.

What Is Co-Parent Counseling?

Co-parent counseling helps separated or divorced parents communicate more effectively, manage conflict, and make decisions that support their children’s emotional and developmental needs.

It is different from couples therapy - instead of rehashing the past it’s focused on building a new way forward.

This service is designed for:

  • Parents who want to maintain open, healthy communication after separation

  • Parents in high-conflict dynamics who need structure and neutral support

  • Parents fulfilling court-ordered co-parent counseling requirements

The goal: to create a child-centered, respectful co-parenting relationship that benefits everyone involved.

How Co-Parent Counseling Helps

In sessions, we focus on tools that make everyday parenting smoother:

  • Parenting Plans: Co-create agreements which address timeshare schedules, holidays, medical decisions, extra curricular activities, and future planning.

  • Clear Communication: Learning calm, respectful ways to discuss parenting matters.

  • Conflict Management: Understanding triggers and finding de-escalation strategies.

  • Consistency Between Homes: Building routines and expectations your child can rely on.

  • Healthy Boundaries: Setting clear guidelines for respectful interaction.

  • Cooperation for Kids: Making parenting decisions that prioritize your children’s needs.

Even small shifts in tone and structure can make a big difference in how your family functions day-to-day.

Why Co-Parent Counseling Matters

Children thrive when their parents can communicate and cooperate—even from separate households. When parents reduce conflict and work as a team, children feel more secure, confident, and emotionally balanced.

Through co-parent counseling, parents learn to:

  • Move from an ex-partner mindset to a co-parent partnership

  • Manage emotional triggers more effectively

  • Create clear and consistent boundaries

  • Model healthy communication for their children

What to Expect

Every family’s situation is unique. Sessions are tailored to your needs and may include:

  1. Joint Sessions: Build direct communication and shared agreements.

  2. Individual Sessions: Address emotional regulation and personal goals.

  3. Parenting Plan Support: Develop consistent routines, expectations, and communication systems.

For court-ordered counseling, attendance verification or progress summaries can be provided upon request.

My role is neutral and supportive — I don’t take sides. The focus remains on your children’s well-being and the health of your co-parenting relationship.
