When we encounter a client who brings up coparenting challenges with an ex-spouse, we need to be on high alert! Our client may have very real grievances they need to process in the therapy, but, if we don’t hold on to a relational ethics approach, we may be missing opportunities where our client may be harming their children, through direct putdowns or more indirect triangulation between the client, ex and the children (young or well into adulthood!)

The webinar will be highly interactive, designed for you to process current clients (or past clinical experience) using a relational ethic lens. The assumption is you’ve tried the Listen and Explore skills, but may struggle on P (Perspective) or C (Challenge) especially if you’re not sure how to be gentle and affirming while worried about the potential harm to children.
