Typical Goals:
Typical Process for Evaluation of Client Needs:
1. Initial Meeting with Client.
xx• discuss case
xx• answer questions
xx• provide feedback
x• develop tentative strategic options and choices
The first step is usually a phone conversation between Dr. Bone and a parent and/or attorney. Given the capabilities of today's communicative environment, these meetings are primarily conducted via telephone. This discussion is completely confidential and includes anything the client may want to discuss. Dr. Bone will be able to provide specific suggestions for your situation and be able to explain how/when/where his involvement can improve your court hearing / evaluation / testimony / case outcome. Dr. Bone’s experience and awareness of the complexities of PA cases will become even more evident in this first conversation. This first step can go a long way in helping to create a better overall outcome for your case.
2. Review Materials
xx• gain a better understanding of your case
xx• organize materials consistent with strategy
Dr. Bone will review anything you can provide to help him fully understand and get up-to-speed in your case. The list of materials may include evaluations, court orders, letters, emails and literally anything that is pertinent to the case. The extensive amount of materials that accumulate in cases involving Parental Alienation can be very daunting but Dr. Bone is quite familiar with this aspect of these types of cases.
3. Identify Key Points
xx• create a compact version of case history
xx• find details significant to the court
xx• find distractions created by alienation
Here’s where a thorough understanding of how Parental Alienation cases differ than others seen in Family Court is vital. It is very easy for the court, mental-health professionals, lawyers and clients to become overwhelmed, overly-focused or simply become diverted by details that are immaterial in reaching resolutions. Think of Dr. Bone as a fresh pair of eyes in the investigation of your case... eyes that are experienced in seeing-through the facade that alienators are quite adept at creating. He is very experienced at weeding through a mountain of papers and identifying key points that will truly get the court’s attention. The goal is to accumulate a compact version of the case and again, find those specific items that will be most critcal to helping the court to see the authentic history of your case. This part of the preparation of your case can save time and money. Any other professionals brought into the case or those you have already hired will have access to not just a condensed version of events, but a list of items to remain focused on. Too often the court and everyone involved seems to get side-tracked by unimportant details that waste precious time and resources. Dr. Bone understands that while these “unimportant details” may be very emotionally important to a mother or father experiencing them... they are often however, irrelevant to the court and to helping your case get resolution.
4. Develop Strategies
xx• eliminate distractions
xx• present authentic history of the case
xx• implement team approach
xx• identification of problem areas and development
xxxof counter measures
xx• locate and prepare outside resources
xx• preparation of witnesses and materials
This step is where your case will change direction, regain focus and find positive footing amidst the drama of Parental Alienation. The goal is to eliminate distractions that alienating parents create and help the court see the authentic version of your case. Dr. Bone works directly with a client to develop strategies that work to break-through the false-front presented by an alienating parent. He will assemble a team of professionals to work on your case under his direction and recommendations OR he will work alongside the professionals you have already hired. Dr. Bone feels that a “team” approach to presenting these cases is extremely important. Strategies will only work if everyone involved in presenting your case is fully prepared to implement them.
*Parental Alienation can be used incorrectly. Truly abusive parents can improperly claim that their fearful children have been alienated by the influences of the other parent, when in fact, they have not. Dr. Bone reserves the right to deny his services or fire any client misapplying Parental Alienation to their case. Dr. Bone will not assist an Alienating parent.
