Your relationship with your co-parent is one of the most powerful influences on your child’s emotional, behavioral, and academic well-being. Research shows that ongoing conflict between parents can increase stress for children, while strong, supportive co-parenting can reduce anxiety and improve overall adjustment.
In this previously hosted conversation, Ruth Freeman LCSW interviews Brian D. Doss, Ph.D. a leading voice behind the research-driven OurRelationship program to explore how parent relationships directly impact children. Backed by over a decade of research, this approach has been shown to improve communication, reduce conflict, and even decrease adjustment problems in children.
