SUPERVISED VISITATION

Introduction & Overview

I provide a safe setting for visitation that has been ordered by the court or agreed upon by the parents.  My goal is to make the experience safe and positive for all parties.

I understand the importance of maintaining relationships between non-custodial parents and their children. Supervised visitation services are designed to provide a safe and positive environment for children and their families.  I am present during all interactions between the non-custodial parent and child(ren) and will intervene and may terminate the visit if necessary.

Visitations may be held at my property, which provides a location with both indoor and outdoor venues. Off-site locations for supervised visits may be requested, but I retain the discretion to reject any locations deemed unsafe.

I am neutral and do not take sides or pass judgment on either parent. My goal is to make the visitations as comfortable and safe as possible for all parties.

  • Benefits of Supervised Visitation

    Supervised visitation is for families navigating difficult times. It ensures that children are protected from conflicts while maintaining a healthy relationship with both parents in a safe environment. Supervised visitation provides visits while avoiding direct contact between parents. The presence of a neutral third-party supervisor ensures that visits are conducted in a safe and appropriate manner.

  • Intake Assessment – Orientation

    Prior to service, an intake assessment must be completed with each parent. During the intake process, I ask about the reasons for supervised visitation and information on any family issues that may impact the visitation. I will also ask about any medical or mental conditions that could affect the visitation. Each parent will be informed about confidentiality.

    All visitation schedules between parents will be coordinated by the supervisor to eliminate contact between the parties.
