Supervised Visitation and Safe Exchange Program
At The Therapeutic Solution, we provide Supervised Visitation and Monitored Exchanges. Our facilities are “kid-friendly” and family-welcoming, so children and families will feel comfortable and safe. Our services allow children to have contact with parents they might not otherwise be able to due to conflict or legal restrictions.
We also provide Therapeutic Supervised Visitation, which is supervised by a licensed therapist. These visits are trauma-informed, child-focused, and guided by mental health professionals. Families may be referred to the Therapeutic Supervised Visitation or Monitored Exchange services by the court, CPS, family law attorneys, or voluntarily.
Supervised Visits in the Community
In addition to in-office supervised visits, we now offer Supervised Visits in the Community, allowing parents and children to reconnect in real-world environments such as:
- Parks
- Restaurants (e.g., McDonald’s)
- Libraries
- Playgrounds or other public child-friendly spaces
These visits are facilitated by trained staff to ensure safety and support throughout the visit. They are appropriate for families transitioning from in-office supervision to more natural settings, while still needing professional observation.
Benefits of Community-Based Visits
- Helps normalize the parent-child interaction in real-world scenarios
- Encourages bonding through shared experiences (e.g., playing at a park)
- Builds confidence and communication in a less structured environment
- Allows the therapist or supervisor to observe behavioral dynamics in public settings
This option is typically reserved for families showing readiness to move toward unsupervised contact but still needing oversight. Referrals for community visits are evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
How Can a Parent Visit with Their Child?
The court will typically order when and how visitation can occur. TTS follows those orders in full. Our visit availability is from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM, weekends available by appointment only. Community-based visits may have more flexible scheduling options depending on staff availability.
Why Access Help?
Supervised access supports:
- Safer reintroduction of a parent into the child’s life
- Reduced emotional harm and conflict exposure for children
- Rebuilding relationships in a monitored environment
- An opportunity to demonstrate safe parenting
The goal is to create a safe, respectful experience for all parties, especially the child.
