As a therapist working in high-conflict divorce and co-parenting, my job is to help parents resolve disputes and nurture their children’s social and emotional growth. Research shows that the frequency and intensity of parent conflict, the style of conflict, its manner of resolution, and the presence of buffers to protect a child from the presence of high conflict are the most important predictors of child adjustment. I also provide therapy for pornography addiction using an evidence-based model, depression and anxiety, life changes. I work with families experiencing parent/child alienation or estrangement, often due to divorce. I also am available to conduct child custody evaluations for situations involving the courts, and have 25 years + of experience working with children and families in the child welfare system. I also work with divorced or divorcing adults and provide coparenting. People caught in the midst of a dissolving relationship always want to minimize the damage and hurt it causes themselves and their children. Won’t you allow me to work with you in exploring how to go through these changes and improve your ability, and your child’s, to thrive? (I am a member of the of the AFCC).
