Choosing the right Therapy

Traditional Family Therapy should never be used in Parental Alienation cases.  It identitifies the wrong patient.  The parent who is targeted and alienated is the identified patient.  The children are just pawns of the alienator who is using domestic violence by proxy to continue their abuse through others and agencies and the courts.

The appropriate therapy uses Family Systems and Structural Family Therapy.
