Co-Parenting

When parents are no longer together, the challenges of raising children and dealing with the lifelong connection of families can be overwhelming. Dr. Lightfoot is committed to helping families adjust to changing dynamics and working with co-parents to effectively solve problems together and understand how to best provide a healthy upbringing for your children in the midst of what may seem to be an extremely difficult or even impossible situation. Successful co-parenting can be a reality! It is life-changing for the parents to learn and be able to actually put into practice effective communication and conflict resolution skills. And it is life-changing for the children to perceive each parent working toward fostering stability and being a positive role model, and to feel the comfort and security of a parent’s love rather than feeling like the focal point of conflict. Dr. Lightfoot will help you find the best strategy for your unique situation, and then can help reevaluate periodically, as needed, to support you and the whole family through life’s issues.
