CO-PARENTING SUPPORT

You’re not together anymore. But you’re still parents.

Co-parenting therapy to break the conflict cycle and keep your kids out of the middle.

And somehow, every handoff feels like a negotiation. Every text about school pickups turns into a fight. You’re exhausted, your kids are caught in the middle, and you don’t know how to stop the cycle without one of you giving in completely.

This isn’t about liking each other. It’s about your kids not having to choose sides.

Who this is for

This is for parents who are no longer in a relationship but still share the work of raising children. Maybe the split was recent. Maybe it was years ago and the tension never really went away. Either way, if conflict is the default and the kids are feeling it, this is a place to start.

What we’ll work on

Co-parenting sessions focus on the patterns keeping you stuck, not the history of the relationship. We’ll look at:

  • Using communication styles that resolve instead of escalate

  • Keeping your focus on your children's needs without getting distracted by old relationship hurts

  • Responding to your kids when you don't have all the answers

  • Building a parenting structure that aligns best with you and your kids

I draw on EFT and attachment-based approaches to help you understand what’s underneath the conflict, not just manage the surface behavior.

FREQUENTLY-ASKED QUESTIONS

  • No. One parent doing this work still creates real change. You can’t control what the other person does, but you can change how you show up, and that shifts the dynamic.

  • No. Co-parenting support is focused entirely on the parenting relationship, not the past romantic one. The goal isn’t reconciliation. It’s a functional partnership for your kids.

  • I don’t provide legal advice or documentation for court. If you’re in active litigation, let me know in your consultation so expectations are clear from the start.


  • Yes. High conflict is often where this work matters most. Sessions are structured to keep things productive, not to relitigate the relationship.

How it works

I can work with you individually or with both co-parents present, depending on what’s realistic and what you need. Many people start individually, working on their own reactivity and communication, then move to joint sessions when the groundwork is there.

There’s no pressure to sit in a room with someone you’re in conflict with before you’re ready. Sessions are available online across California, Nevada, and Vermont, and in person in Los Alamitos.
