Parent Coordination
Reducing Conflict. Protecting Children. Supporting Co-Parenting.
What if you could reduce conflict and protect your child—without going back to court?
When co-parenting becomes high-conflict, the stress can quickly take a toll—on parents, on communication, and most importantly, on children. Parent coordination is a structured, child-focused process designed to help separated or divorced parents reduce conflict, make effective decisions, and navigate co-parenting more peacefully.
This is not counseling or therapy. It’s a neutral, goal-oriented service that helps parents manage disputes and stick to parenting plans—while minimizing the emotional fallout for children caught in the middle.
Who is Parent Coordination For?
Parent coordination is typically recommended for:
Divorced or separated parents with ongoing disputes or communication breakdowns
High-conflict situations involving frequent court involvement
Families where children are being impacted by parental tension or triangulation
Parents struggling to implement custody agreements or make shared decisions
We work with both parents—together or separately—to reduce gridlock, create accountability, and protect the child’s emotional safety.
Our Approach:
We bring structure, neutrality, and a child-first mindset to every case. We don’t take sides, but we do prioritize what’s developmentally appropriate, realistic, and aligned with the child’s best interests. Our work may include:
Reviewing and clarifying parenting agreements
Facilitating communication between parents
Coaching around boundaries, decision-making, and respectful co-parenting
Documenting agreements and guiding next steps
When we are engaged in Parent Coordination, we do not provide therapy—but we do have therapists on our team that do and we collaborate with attorneys, and courts when appropriate to support the broader system around the child.
Protecting what matters most.
Children do best when parents can shield them from ongoing adult conflict—even when there is deep disagreement. Parent coordination exists to help make that possible. We’re here to help your family move forward with less stress, more clarity, and a renewed focus on what matters most: your child’s well-being.
What is Parent Coordination?
Parent coordination is a court-ordered or voluntarily chosen service for families with ongoing conflict that disrupts co-parenting, decision-making, or daily logistics. The parent coordinator serves as a neutral third party who helps parents:
Implement and follow existing court orders or parenting agreements
Make low-level decisions when parents can’t agree (e.g., schedule changes, communication methods, extracurriculars)
Reduce misunderstandings and repeated conflict
Improve communication and accountability
Keep the focus on the child’s well-being—not ongoing disputes
This process is structured, practical, and child-centered. The goal is not to resolve all past conflict but to improve the current functioning of the co-parenting relationship so children can grow up with more stability and less stress.
