D02, Mindful Co-parenting: A Child-Friendly Path Through Divorce – Jeremy Gaies, James Morris Jr. (1.5 CME Credits Family)

This workshop presents an approach to co-parenting that uses the framework of mindfulness as a basis for optimizing the co-parenting relationship between spouses with children at all steps in the divorce process. This approach addresses considerations in making a decision about separation and divorce, selecting a legal approach to divorce, drafting a parenting plan, and following a set of guidelines for co-parenting. A primary goal of the workshop is to provide attendees with a clear understanding of the co-parenting research and a set of skills that attendees can apply in a range of settings including mediation, attorney consultations, collaborative divorce, parenting coordination, divorce counseling, and other settings.
