Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

 Reintegration therapy isn’t easy—and that’s okay. Rebuilding a parent–child relationship after conflict or distance takes time, patience, and emotional support. Children may feel unsure at first, and parents can experience their own worries or frustrations. Ups and downs are normal.

With structure, guidance, and a focus on emotional safety, families can reconnect and move forward more confidently. This is a journey we walk together. 

 These services are usually ordered when a parent–child relationship has been disrupted, strained, or significantly influenced by conflict. Reintegration provides a structured, safe environment for restoring connection, improving communication, and repairing trust.  

 Yes—when ethically appropriate and within LPC/DORA guidelines.
Communication may include treatment summaries, coordination with professionals, or clarification of therapeutic needs. However, therapy is not a place for legal strategy, narrative-building, or advocacy for either parent. 

  There is no one-size-fits-all timeline. The length of the process depends on the child’s readiness, each parent’s participation, the level of conflict, and the history of the relationship. Consistency and cooperation from all parties help create smoother progress. 

 Reintegration therapy is more structured and directive. It involves:

• Court involvement or oversight 
• Collaboration with professionals (CFIs, GALs, attorneys) 
• Parent participation and coaching 
• A focus on attachment repair and emotional safety
   

It is therapeutic, but also has a restorative and educational component that supports the whole family system.

 In these cases, the child is the primary client. All treatment decisions, pacing, and interventions are made with the child’s emotional safety and well-being as the top priority. Parents are essential partners in the process, but the therapeutic relationship centers on the child. 

 Yes, preferably. Reintegration and court-ordered family therapy would like cooperation from both parents. Even when one parent is the focus of the reintegration, both households should support the child’s progress for the therapy to be successful. 

 Yes, when clinically appropriate and when ordered or recommended as part of the reintegration process. This can help the child feel more comfortable and supported in their natural environment.
