Divorce and Co-Parenting can be difficult
You just want what is best for your child. It can be so difficult to get along with your ex-partner and make decisions related to what is going to be in the best interest of your child. Whether you are going through the divorce process, were never married and are separating, or have been co-parenting with your ex-partner for years it can be good to have an idea how therapy for your child will work.
I have been supporting children whose parents have been divorcing or co-parenting since the start of my career. Through these years of knowledge and experience I have developed several resources that have helped support parents who are divorced and co-parenting through the therapy process.

If you are looking for someone to assess custody or parenting time or help making decisions between you and your co-parent about your child, that is outside the scope of individual mental health therapy and is an ethical conflict of interest for an individual therapist to assess and provide support for both individual therapy and custody evaluation. I would recommend seeking out a specific Custody Evaluator that can assess you, your ex-partner, and your child/children and make recommendations about parenting time and custody. If you are looking for support on decision making for your child between you and your ex-partner I would recommend the support of a Mediator or a Parenting Consultant.
