With the divorce rate in America at over 50 percent, effective co-parenting continues to be more relevant than ever. Learn how to help your clients understand the challenges and strengths in co-parenting. This presentation will guide you in understanding the key developmental needs for children specific to co-parenting families, create an effective parenting plan for co-parents who want to be intentional in their parenting, and how to assist them to continue to foster a secure connection with their children.

It will provide an understanding of specific needs of co-parented children at every developmental stage, creating a co-parenting plan with your co-parent, managing resentments in co-parenting, and promoting effective communication strategies in co-parenting.
