For mental health professionals
Coparenting resources for therapists
Help coparenting clients reduce emotional exposure to high-conflict messages and practice calmer communication between sessions—reinforcing the boundaries and communication skills they are building in therapy. BestInterest supports self-regulation, client agency, and child-focused communication in everyday coparenting moments.
A clinical perspective
“BestInterest is a tool that can help any coparent to get real-time feedback on optimal child-centered communication. Sometimes the overwhelm gets the best of anyone in these situations—BestInterest is a chance to slow down and communicate in the healthiest way possible.”
How it helps
Support clients between sessions
Reduce conflict and emotional stress
Message Shield filters harmful incoming language so clients can focus on the child-related information they need with less emotional exposure.
Review original messages together
Clients can bring a preserved original message into a session and choose to review it with you. They stay in control while you help them process emotional reactions, identify triggers, and plan next steps instead of confronting harmful language alone.
Encourage healthy boundaries
Solo Mode and Smart Silence help clients separate coparenting communication from the rest of their day and choose when non-urgent messages reach them.
Support self-regulation between sessions
Tone Guardian and the Coparent Coach help clients pause, reflect, and practice calmer, child-focused communication in everyday situations.
Notice patterns and document interactions
The Coparent Journal gives clients a private place to document real-world events, reflect on patterns, and prepare topics they may want to discuss in session.
Keep clients in control
Clients decide which tools to use, whether to view an original message, and what they want to bring into therapy, supporting agency alongside structure.
