Reunification Programme

What is a reunification programme?

Reunification is the process of building a relationship between a child and practitioner, utilizing a therapeutic support approach through life story work to foster the reconnection both physically and psychologically between the child and a separated parent. The primary long-term goal of this family therapy is to re-establish trust, communication, and time spent together between parent and child, with progress always guided at the child’s pace. This programme often occurs during court proceedings, typically after prolonged periods of separation, especially when domestic abuse or high-conflict situations have affected the child and parent relationship.

Timescales: Reunification is a progressive piece of work. It will always start with research and preparation work, then some time getting to know the child before delving into the actual work. For some children this is 10-12 sessions and for others it can be much longer.
