Susan is a mental health professional who, after working for several years in family court, left her position to focus solely on her mediation and parenting coordination clients. She found the system to be far too harsh on the litigants and contrary to the ideal of moving families forward, rather, it only served to heighten anxiety and to increase the likelihood of parents attempting to distance the children from the other parent in order to secure a win, and regardless of intentions, family court is where Coparenting relationships suffer from the most disabling conflict that is almost impossible to recover from. Using her proven skills in negotiation and best interest, Susan has brought about many creative Parenting Plans that work for individual families and their unique needs and circumstances.Susan has been providing Parenting Coordination services since 2002 and sees it as an integral part of the high conflict divorce process. Children have a right to timely decision making when parents become too lost in their conflict to make good choices. As a PC Susan can make summary decisions without costly and time consuming trips to court that have no impact on the issues put before the court as the issue is long since passed before the parents reach a courtroom.
