Why Do You Need Family Therapy for Co-Parenting Challenges Post-Divorce?
Divorce brings tough emotions and changes that can be hard to manage. As parents, you might avoid talking, put kids in the middle, or say negative things about your ex. Your kids may feel sad, frustrated, or angry and hide their feelings to avoid burdening you. These are normal reactions because post-divorce transition is challenging for many families.
If the pattern persists, you and your ex may need a safe space to learn better communication, especially for co-parenting. Studies show that good co-parenting helps parents reduce stress, and improve their relationship with their kids. It encourages positive parenting and can lower the chances of children having mental health problems.
Family Therapy for co-parenting helps you build a healthier partnership for parenting, not romance. It improves communication, reduces fights, and helps your children feel heard, safe, and supported.

How Can Our Family Therapy for Co-Parenting Services Help?
To help divorced parents navigate co-parenting, we provide education on topics like divorce, child development and blended family. This guidance helps parents understand how their emotions can lead to miscommunication or conflict. For example, we help parents recognize how misunderstandings can lead to anger, causing them to overlook their children’s reactions.
Additionally, we equip parents with skills like mutual support, negotiation, and effective co-parenting techniques. A key aspect of this process is creating a clear co-parenting plan that addresses important details such as scheduling and decision-making. This approach helps you establish a more stable and cooperative family structure that benefits both you and your children.

How Family Therapy for Co-Parenting Works at Relate Reflect?
Sessions typically last 45 minutes, usually with parents, and may include a few sessions with children if needed. Weekly appointments are recommended. We can adjust the frequency and session length based on your needs. Between sessions, we encourage you to apply what you’ve learned in your life. The duration of therapy varies—some parents see progress quickly, while others may need more time, especially if there’s a history of high conflict or mistrust.
Starting therapy can feel nerve-wracking as past feelings from the marriage may resurface, making communication difficult. However, these moments are opportunities for growth and improvement. Our experience shows that the more committed you are to the process, the greater the results. Check out the FAQ page for more information.
