Professional Supervised Visitation (Monitored Visits)

"I want to thank you for providing a much- needed service, and to let you know that the Court was very happy to hear that your organization was available online. I’m sure you’re aware how difficult it is to find competent people who do this work. Your organization is an asset to the courts and I’m happy to have found you. Again, I want to thank you for your services and your excellent follow up reports, and please know that I will be spreading the word. It was a pleasure working with you." -  Attorney


Supervised visitation is contact between a noncustodial party and one or more children in the presence of a neutral third person.

The Visits
After the Interviews and Orientations have been completed and your family is approved for services, your visits can begin. Please note that visits can not begin until the Intake and Orientation have been completed for all adults involved. 

After initial Intake and Orientation are complete, and if the Court Order allows, visits may happen in the community. This means you may do your visits at a park, the bowling alley, the library, or your favorite restaurant. Travel fees may apply.

You will find more information about Visits during the Online Interview & Orientation. 

The Parent is the Parent during Parenting Time
Parents may bring approved snacks, meals, gifts or activities to engage children during session, as appropriate and unless contraindicated by Court Order. 

Parents are responsible for the child, including diapering and toileting, except in sexual abuse cases.


You will find more information about Parenting Time during the Online Interview & Orientation.

Therapeutic Visitation
Some states allow Therapeutic Visitation.  Standard Supervised Visitation and Facilitated Visitation services do not include therapy services.

You may receive 
Reunification Therapy, Child Therapy and/or Family Therapy separate from your visits, if ordered or allowed by the Court.  The same person who provides one service cannot provide another.  For example, your Monitor cannot also be your Therapist.  For information on Therapy Service, check here. 

​Supervised Visitation is not mediation. Your Monitor cannot get involved in the personal emotions, frustrations and/or relationship complaints that are often present in a divorcing or ineffective co-parenting situation.  Those issues should be addressed with the Court, your attorney, mediator, therapist, and/or other professional.   A Monitor's job is to remain neutral and provide a safe visitation experience.  Custodial and Visiting Parents must each follow SV guidelines.
