Reunifying Families with Mental Health Issues Involved in High Conflict Divorce
Divorce can be incredibly stressful due to the multitude of changes that families experience. How do court professionals assess the safety and well-being of a child, particularly when the child has been estranged from a parent due to intimate partner violence, allegations of physical/sexual abuse, substance use, or other mental health issues? This presentation will provide creative strategies for assessing family dynamics, as well as treatment approaches to empower children/families and foster resilience.
