How do you prove parental alienation?
Mental-health professionals recognize the tragic impact parental alienation has on children, as the children may go on to have psychiatric disorders, failed relationships, and dysfunctional lives. In cases of severe parental alienation, we recommend the use of licensed professionals to aid in demonstrating the existence of the other parent utilizing alienation tactics. Said professionals can relay their observations and recommendations to the Court. At Spivak Law Firm, we routinely handle high-conflict custody cases involving parental alienation. Call Spivak Law Firm at (412) 344-4900 or toll free at (800) 545-9390.
How do you remedy the effects of parental alienation?
The psychological harm that results from parental alienation can be remedied or at least minimized by the intervention of professional counselors. In cases where parental alienation persists, Courts are often inclined to take custody away from the alienating parent to avoid further harm to the child. For more information, call Spivak Law Firm at (412) 344-4900 or toll free at (800) 545-9390.
What is co-parenting counseling?
Co-parenting counseling is often ordered in high-conflict custody cases. It offers parents the opportunity to meet together with a licensed counselor in a confidential therapeutic setting to address the co-parenting relationship and issues of the child following separation. Parents have the chance to discuss day-to-day parenting issues, custody schedules, school, and behavioral concerns with the help of a counselor. Co-parenting counselors can also offer practical solutions to minimize conflict, improve communication, and focus on the needs of the child. For some parents, co-parenting counseling can help them move past the hurt feelings, frustration, and anger related to the separation itself in order to focus on the child. To learn more, call Spivak Law Firm at (412) 344-4900 or toll free at (800) 545-9390.
What is family counseling?
Family counseling provides an opportunity for family members to meet with a licensed counselor who can help improve communication, resolve existing issues, learn coping skills, and heal wounds within their family. Sessions may include all family members or it may be limited to only certain family members. At Spivak Law Firm, we assist families with enrollment in family counseling.
