Court-Involved Therapy (CIT) Workshop

A structured approach to working in high-conflict and custody-related cases.

This is a small, in-person workshop for therapists working in court-involved or high-conflict family cases.

It is based on more than 20 years of experience working in custody-related situations, including reunification work and collaboration with legal systems.

The focus is on how these cases actually function, and how to approach them in a way that stays grounded under pressure.

You may be noticing

  • your usual approach isn’t holding

  • sessions becoming harder to manage

  • uncertainty about your role as pressure increases

What this is

This is a working session built around real case dynamics.

We will look at:

  • how therapists get pulled into parent conflict

  • where neutrality begins to shift

  • how sessions become reactive over time

  • what begins to break down when structure is not clear

Who this is for

This workshop is for therapists who are:

  • working in court-involved or high-conflict cases

  • beginning to encounter these situations

  • or being pulled into them through legal involvement

What you’ll work through

Bring one case with you.

During the workshop, you will:

  • map the dynamics of the case more clearly

  • identify where the work begins to lose structure

  • understand where you are being pulled into the system

  • begin organizing a more structured approach to your role

After the workshop

You should have a clearer sense of what is happening in the case you’re working with.

That includes:

  • where the work has started to lose structure

  • how you are being pulled into the system

  • what your role looks like moving forward

The goal is not to resolve the case in two hours, but rather to leave with a more grounded way of approaching it.

Why this matters

In these cases, the way the work is structured influences how stable the process is for the child and the family system.

Without structure, sessions tend to become more reactive. With structure, it becomes easier to stay grounded when pressure increases.
