Parenting Coordination Solutions for Complex Co-Parenting Conflict across BC
From high-conflict transitions to sensitive identity and health decisions—I provide the legal structure and arbitration needed to move families from the courtroom back to parenting. With 28 years of family law expertise, I turn 'impossible' stalemates into binding resolutions. With 18 years as a Parenting Coordinator, I help parents navigate the "impossible" moments. My unique system replaces the damage of the courtroom with decisive, child-centered solutions that protect your family’s future and your peace of mind.
Why Choose Parenting Coordination?
Parenting Coordination (PC) is an innovative solution for separated or divorced parents. When met with trauma, our brains protect itself with a fight or flight response. It is possible to rewire our responses using education and structured protocols to focus on solutions in the best interests of your children and rebuild trust over time. We focus on the following pillars: 1. Emotional Regulation: Learning to manage responses for the sake of your children. 2. Flexible Thinking: Moving from "winning" to finding practical solutions. 3. Respectful Communication: Using structured tools like Our Family Wizard to keep the peace. 4. Child’s Best Interests: These are objectively definable criteria including factors listed in section 37 of the Family Law Act such as stability for your child. * Serving Families Across BC: While based in Kelowna, I provide virtual and in-person PC and Arbitration services for families in Kelowna, Kamloops, Vancouver, Victoria, Prince George, and rural communities throughout the province.
The Method: A Structured Path to Resolution
Our process is divided into two clear phases to ensure your family gets the specific level of support you need:
Phase I: Training & Self-Resolution
We provide the coaching and legal tools (like our Mandatory Communication Agreement) to help you resolve issues independently.
Goal: To make you self-sufficient and reduce long-term legal costs.
Phase II: Focused Intervention
For issues that cannot be solved through consensus, I act as an arbitrator to make binding decisions (Determinations) that are enforceable by the court.
Goal: Quick, final decisions that keep you out of the courtroom.
