The purpose of this article is to discuss issues germane to high-conflict divorce and separation when children are involved. It explores the negative effects of divorce on children and the parental relationship as well as the impact of the adversarial nature of the family court system in the process of high-conflict divorce. Parenting coordination is presented as a new, multifaceted co-parenting intervention to help resolve pre- and postdivorce issues relative to the new family dynamics. Implications for mental health professionals as parenting coordinators are outlined, and suggestions for further research are provided.

Key Words: divorce • high-conflict divorce • parenting coordination • co-parenting interventions
