You can ask the court to appoint a mental health provider in a variety of capacities to assist your family. Examples include:
A court-ordered behavioral interventionist (COBI) is a professional who works with parents and children to help them develop and maintain healthy relationships. COBI programs are often used in custody cases to help reunite children who are estranged from their parents.
A therapeutic interventionist (TI) is a mental health professional who is appointed by the court to help families and children resolve problems. TIs can help with a variety of issues, including child estrangement, litigation, relocation of a parent, substance use in one or both parents, and child maltreatment.
