“Christina McGhee has long been my go-to for answers to difficult co-parenting questions. In addition to being an incredible coparenting specialist, she is a spectacular trainer. If you work with co-parents, The Co-Parenting Specialist Certification Training is a MUST. “

4-day LIVE Virtual Training
Unfortunately, that goal often gets lost when conflict takes center stage and emotions run strong. As professionals, it can feel incredibly challenging to keep co-parents child-centered and focused on minimizing the impact on their kids.
If you have ever:
- Wished you had more tools for successfully working with separating parents.
- Struggled to get parents to focus on their children instead of each other.
- Wrestled with what to say or do to help co-parents side-step differences and keep their emotions in check.
- Looked for a way to meet the needs of your clients and set you and your practice apart.
Then this training is for you.
Christina McGhee believes in order to truly help co-parents shift their perspective; professionals have to start with shifting their own.
This unique intensive Co-Parenting Specialist® Training Program is designed to do exactly that.
It helps divorce practitioners move beyond focusing on how time is spent between households and center their work with co-parents on the needs of children as they navigate the realities of post-divorce parenting.
Regardless of where you are on the spectrum of experience, this innovative program will help you make the shift while gaining valuable skills, tools and comprehensive resources you can start using in your practice right away.
The Co-Parenting Specialist program is a fun, interactive, and informative program that equips you with knowledge that you will use for a lifetime. It is also a great networking opportunity to meet other family law attorneys, mental health professionals, divorce coaches, etc. I highly recommend anyone and everyone to take this course.

When parents become distressed, angry or committed to conflict, the first thought that goes through any divorce professionals mind is, “What do I say?” Whether it’s calming a distraught parent or trying to negotiate with someone who won’t listen to reason, it can be daunting to come up with the “right words” at the “right time.”
For most practitioners, the thought of being empathic or validating with a client can be incredibly intimidating. And yet… it is the very thing that causes your clients to love you or leave you.
"Christina’s practical and relatable approach made handling even the most emotional or difficult clients feel not just manageable but transformative.
Her RAVE formula—gave us a clear, actionable framework for connecting with clients in ways that truly resonate. The interactive sessions were engaging, eye-opening, and full of lightbulb moments. I left feeling empowered to turn tough interactions into opportunities to build trust and better relationships. This workshop didn’t just help me enhance client relationships—it gave me tools to foster loyalty and stand out in an increasingly competitive field.
Christina’s expertise will inspire you and your firm to create raving fans out of even the hardest clients. ”

Perfect for Annual Conferences, or organizational trainings for: family Lawyers, family mediators, collaborative lawyers and other professionals working with separating parents.
Full-Day, Half-Day Training Format Available | Virtual or In-Person
As professionals who work with separating couples, we’ve all heard the well-worn phrase “in the best interest of children.” Unfortunately, “the best interest of children” is often code for “reach an agreement” and not necessarily about crafting a GOOD agreement that considers the realities of family life and children’s needs.
Helping families shift from chaos to calm isn’t about handing them a perfect plan—it’s about offering a different lens. This full-day training introduces a practical, memorable framework—the C.O.R.E. components of successful co-parenting—that helps parents stay grounded, even in the hardest moments.
We’ll dig into what really makes a difference for kids when parents part ways: staying child-centered, being open to differences, redefining family life, and building a strong support system. You’ll walk away with real-world strategies, sticky ideas (think: T-shirt slogans with impact), and exercises you can use right away to help co-parents reset the tone, rethink roles, and make more intentional choices.
Her child-centered approach offered valuable tools for supporting families with compassion and clarity during one of life’s most difficult transitions. Rather than offering fixed solutions, Christina showed how meaningful inquiry helps each family discover their own “North Star”—a guiding principle that reflects their unique values and needs while keeping children at the heart of the process.
This training was a powerful reminder that our role is not to prescribe answers, but to create space for insight, growth, and healing. Christina’s approach reinforced the value of meeting families where they are, helping them move forward with intention, and always keeping the well-being of their children at the center of the conversation.

- Tools and strategies for guiding co-parents through early-stage challenges, including time-sharing, parenting plans, and redefining roles.
- How to reframe conflict, address tough moments with flexibility, and keep kids out of the middle—without ignoring reality.
