Navigating Change with Compassion

Separation Counseling + Collaborative Parenting

You’ve made the difficult decision to separate, yet are still struggling with all of the communication, conflict, and parenting discord that led to the separation. You’re not sure how to transition your relationship, you want peace to be able to move on, you want the children to be put first, you want to be able to communicate through conflict.
This is where Separation Counseling and Co-Parent Coaching can be effective.
I'm Ready to Book, Let's Get Started

What is Separation Counseling?

Whether you have children or not, our licensed clinicians can help you understand patterns that led you to separate in the first place, gain clarity, and grow from the experience to avoid repeating the same patterns. We help individuals navigate the emotional challenges of separation and divorce, fostering healthy coping mechanisms and communication skills. 

Collaborative Parenting

Your child's needs are a priority. When engaged in Collaborative Parenting at Banyan, our therapists help parents improve communication to reduce overall conflict, and foster a collaborative relationship to create peace in the family unit.

Goals of Collaborative Parenting:
  1. Develop a clear plan for financial responsibilities and commitments that works for both parents
  2. Establish boundaries for communication and privacy
  3. Outline decision-making for medical, holidays, education, travel, and scheduling issues
  4. Reduce power struggles and achieve peace from conflict

Investment

At Banyan, we prioritize your emotional well-being during life transitions. While our fees reflect the expertise and dedicated support you receive from our licensed therapists, we believe that investing in your mental health is priceless—a wise choice that significantly outweighs the emotional and financial costs associated with court litigation.
  • 3-6 sessions, 60-90 minutes each
  • Initial session is 90 minutes, subsequent session lengths are determined by you and your therapist
  • 60 minute sessions are $170
  • 90 minute sessions are $255
