As part of my reunification process and court-ordered family therapy, I carefully review all documentation provided to me. This step is essential for helping the reunification therapist understand how the child and family members reached the point of needing this type of therapy. As your reunification and court-ordered family therapist, the child is my client. Clinical sessions, professional interviews, collateral interviews, the documentation provided, and the safety of the child(ren) inform my professional decisions. My theoretical approach to reunification therapy is evidence-based, drawing from Attachment Theory and Family Systems Theory.
