OUR MISSION

We offer an independent Social Work service with an emphasis on listening to the parents and giving them a voice with pre, during and post legal framework support. We can also provide emotional and therapeutic support to parents throughout the Family Law process.  

We have created a new holistic family trauma-based assessment where the children remain the focus of each parent during this process through a combination of therapies and social work approaches which should assist in reducing parental conflict.

We also offer a unique parental alienation and coercive control specialist parenting assessment model developed by Holistic Independent Social Work.
