Adult Psychotherapy For Adults in Child Custody Cases

Adult Psychotherapy for Someone
Going Through a High Conflict Divorce


Going through a high conflict divorce where the children are involved and custody is an issue, is one of the most stressful times in an adult’s life. The very thought of losing custody and not being able to continue as an active participant in your child’s life makes focusing on the day to day challenges of life extremely difficult. Although many psychotherapists are trained to handle people in crisis, this is a special type of crisis that has very long term consequences for you and your interaction with all the other people close to you, e.g. your family, friends co-workers, and for those you love.

Dr. de Jarnette is a Board Certified Expert in dealing with traumatic stress. He is also a listed Expert Child Custody Evaluator, a listed Expert Parenting Plan Coordinator (i.e. someone the court gives special judicial power to make custody decisions after the court orders the specific Child Custody arrangements at the end of your custody legal fight in court), and a listed Expert in Child Abuse Counseling with the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Family Law Court.

As a seasoned psychotherapist with over 35 years experience and having had outstanding training in the field (see www.drjim.org) he is very familiar with helping people like you deal with the enormous stress you are experiencing. Being a listed Expert Child Custody Evaluator himself, he is very aware of how important it is that certain issues a person may have be directly addressed psychotherapeutically. As a normal course of his Child Custody Investigations, he knows how much weight is given to any parent’s psychotherapy in dealing effectively and efficiently with issues that concern the best interest of the child in the final Custody Evaluation and the Judge’s decision as to how you will be allowed to participate in your child’s development into adulthood.
