A DIFFERENT LENS ON DIVORCE
We focus on the child living inside the divorce.
While so much of divorce focuses on adult questions:
Who gets what? Who gets which days? Who is right? Who is being difficult?
Our work starts with a different question:
“What is this experience like for the child?”
What children need to feel safe and secure.
How adult decisions are experienced by kids.
How to keep conflict from becoming a child’s burden.
How to protect a child’s relationship with both parents.
How to help kids adjust, cope, and move forward.
And from there, we focus on:
That child-centered lens shapes our clinical work, professional education, speaking, and media commentary.
Divorce may be part of a child’s story.
Our work is about helping adults shape what that story feels like to live through. 🩷
