Parent Coordination
Structured Support for Post-Divorce Parenting​
Parent coordination is a child-focused process designed to support effective post-divorce parenting.
Even the most thoughtfully developed parenting plan cannot anticipate every stage of a child’s growth or every shift in family life. Children mature. Schedules evolve. New relationships form. Communication patterns can become strained.
As a family therapist with extensive experience in child development and complex family systems, I approach parent coordination with a steady focus: reducing friction, strengthening communication, and protecting children from ongoing adult conflict.
Parent Coordination Is Helpful When:
​
-
Disagreements about parenting decisions continue
-
Schedules or expectations create recurring tension
-
New circumstances arise that were not previously considered
-
Communication feels reactive or unproductive
-
Parents want structured, professional guidance
​Parent coordination can reduce the need to return to attorneys or court when disagreements arise. By providing a consistent, structured forum for problem-solving, many conflicts can be addressed efficiently and thoughtfully — without re-entering the legal system.
It can be both responsive and proactive — supporting long-term stability and a more functional co-parenting relationship.
