Publisher Description: The New Ways for Families Professional Guidebook is for mental health professionals (counselors), lawyers and judges who want to learn more about New Ways for Families or use the method with their clients. It is also helpful for collaborative professionals, mediators and parenting coordinators considering using this new method. How Does New Ways for Families Work? It is a structured parenting skills method designed to reduce the impact of conflict on children in potentially high-conflict cases. New Ways can be used whenever a parent or the court believes one parent needs restricted parenting (supervised, no contact, limited time), at the start of a case or any time a parent requests restricted parenting including after the divorce or separation. This method emphasizes strengthening skills for positive future behavior (new ways), rather than focusing on past negative behavior while still acknowledging it. |
