Divorce, Remarriage, and Blended Families – Live Webinar

Divorce. Transitioning between households. Remarriage.

For kids, these changes can feel like an earthquake – shaking their sense of security and belonging.

Children often become distressed and dysregulated, struggling to cope with circumstances beyond their control. Anxiety, depression, defiance, and school difficulties can quickly escalate when family conflict becomes chronic.

Parents and stepparents face their own challenges, trying to stay regulated while supporting children through unpredictable transitions. Add in complications like substance abuse, incarceration, or sudden abandonment, and the emotional toll multiplies.

Join child-family psychologist, Dr. Steve O’Brien, for practical, research-informed strategies to help kids navigate loss, loyalty conflicts,and blended family stressors.

You’ll learn how to:

• Build rapport and interview effectively in divorce and blended family contexts
• Provide age-appropriate coping strategies for kids facing chronic conflict or parental health issues
• Improve co-parenting and help blended families integrate
• Use family-focused art, play, and game therapy techniques
• Apply developmentally tailored CBT interventions
• Treat family-related anxiety, depression, and oppositional behavior
• Equip teachers with classroom tactics for distressed children

Empower yourself to guide children through some of life’s toughest transitions – with confidence and compassion.
