Do you work with families where parents are unable to agree at all? Are you struggling to support them to work together to improve outcomes for the children? Are you unsure if what you are seeing is domestic abuse, parental conflict or parental alienation? Does the family feel that this way of behaving is just the way things are?
Families with unresolved intergenerational trauma make up a high percentage of re- referrals to services, often described as the revolving door. To improve outcomes for families, agencies need to view family conflict through a trauma lens and explore traumatic events experienced during childhood and how this can have a negative impact on parenting and use constructive approaches to help parents co-parent effectively.
This course will help you to:
• Understand a range of co-parenting styles
• Differentiate between domestic abuse and destructive parental conflict
• Define parental alienation
• Understand the importance of reaching fathers
• Identify appropriate tools to use when working with parents.
