Subpoenas, Court, and High-Conflict Families in Therapy | Therapist THRIVAL Guide: Ep. 7

Описание: "When you're talking about divorce, the stakes literally do not get any higher because you're talking about your kids and your money... and when you put both of those things on the line and create uncertainty about both of these things are the exact same time, then parents do all the things humans do when they get desperate: sometimes they're playing a game, sometimes they're just trying to survive, and sometimes they're triggered into trauma." - Deb Link

In this episode, we are joined by Deb Link, a licensed marriage and family therapist and professional clinical counselor specializing in high-conflict family therapy and reunification therapy. She is also a mediator, early neutral evaluator, parenting coach, parenting consultant, and custody evaluator. She works most often with parents to help them better the lives of their children through a safe a cooperative co-parenting relationship. She is THE expert when it comes to working with these families! We are diving into everything you need to know about working with court-involved families: what to do if you receive a subpoenas, important terminology, and how to keep yourself out of the triangulation while keeping the kids' needs center.
