Unblocking Contact 

 

 

We are proposing a programme of working with reluctant children / suspected parental alienation.

 

Following a referral we will meet with both parties  and the FCA . These will be held either seperately or together to agree a plan

 of 6- 8 sessions where we will meet with the child or children and both parents to explore the issues relating to the breakdown of contact. 

 

This work is similar to the Improving Child and Family Arrangements (ICFA)programme offered by CAFCASS  but  needs to be funded by parents themselves. 

 

We aim to identiy the blocks to contact from the child perspective and support both parents to understand this and act in the best interest of their child(ren).
