“…Most families enter these services because of unresolved custody, parenting, or visitation disputes, with the aim of reducing conflict and providing opportunities for contact between children and noncustodial parents (Babb et al, 2009; Birnbaum & Alaggia, 2006; Kiely et al, 2019; Saini et al, 2017; Saint-Jacques et al, 2020). In addition to difficulties peacefully co-parenting, families utilizing supervised visitation often experienced one or more challenging circumstances including domestic violence, child abuse and/or neglect, substance abuse, mental health problems, or threats of child kidnapping (Babb et al, 2009; Saini et al, 2017; Saint-Jacques et al, 2020). While parents can volunteer for supervised visitations, they typically result from court orders during instances in which threats to the safety of a child or custodial parent are evident (Babb et al, 2009; Kiely et al, 2019; Saini et al, 2017).…”
