Individualized Instruction & Coaching

  • Observation + Feedback*: While Pivot offers traditional parenting supervision in an unbiased setting, it also offers an option for monitored parenting time supported by an education component, that is designed to provide constructive feedback based on observations, or other information provided to Pivot for consideration. If this structure is court-ordered, feedback will be provided at the conclusion of each supervised parenting time session, and notated on the standard session report.

  • Custom Court Referral*: Pivot also offers parenting education as a stand-alone option at the Court’s discretion, in cases where input would be instructive, even if supervision is not required. In these cases, a Court may refer one or both parties to Pivot to explore issues such as communication, co-parenting, maintaining effective connections, and other special circumstances.

  • Private Guidance*: Additionally, private parenting education services (without a court order), are available upon request for families who are independently interested in focusing on certain areas of impact specific to their circumstances, or discussing issues of importance that affect their family dynamic, on an as-needed basis.

*Rates vary.
