Elizabeth Semrod
Divorce and separation are difficult, but they don't have to define your family's future. I'm Elizabeth, and I specialize in counseling divorced families and co-parents, with one primary focus: I'm always on your child's side. My approach is entirely child-centered and future-focused. I help parents navigate the complex emotions of divorceālike anger, grief, and fearāand channel that energy into a collaborative, effective co-parenting relationship that prioritizes their children's well-being. We work together to reduce conflict and create a stable, consistent environment across both households. In our sessions, we address practical challenges such as: Establishing Healthy Communication: Learning "business-like" or "mailman talk" to keep interactions neutral and focused strictly on the children, avoiding past grievances. Conflict Resolution & Decision-Making: Developing strategies for making joint decisions about child-rearing, living arrangements, and schedules in a way that minimizes stress and models healthy problem-solving for your kids. Creating Consistency: Developing a clear, detailed co-parenting plan that provides the routine and predictability children need to thrive in a two-home family. Emotional Support: Guiding you in processing your own emotions so they don't interfere with your parenting decisions. I have 20years of experience as a child and family therapist, and my background includes specific training in child development, family mediation, and parenting evaluations,which allows me to provide expert guidance on how various options impact your children. My goal is to equip you with the tools to transition from former spouses to effective co-parents, setting your family up for success in the next chapter. If you are committed to putting your child's needs first and creating a healthier family dynamic, I can help. Ready to build a stronger future for your family?
