KIND CO-PARENTING
Hello
My name is Krista Barber
I am a native to Jacksonville, Florida, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Parent Coach, and proud mama to a spunky and fun preschooler! I graduated with my Masters in Social Work from Florida State University in 2010 and starting working as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in 2012. I am currently licensed in Florida and Arizona. I have worked with children and families individually and in groups across various settings, including schools, hospitals, and the private sector. I started Kind Co-Parenting LLC in 2022 after coparenting for over 2 years and recognizing the personal growth that can be harnessed from life’s challenges.
I - like many of you - am a parent navigating the trials of parenting on my own and with my former partner. My divorce and the beginning of coparenting were some of the toughest days of my life, for reasons many of you know and relate to. If it wasn’t already hard enough, I went to a parenting seminar following my divorce, and the facilitator stated, “The best thing we can give our children is a happy and healthy marriage!” That is when the seed of Kind Co-Parenting was planted. It is my mission to support coparents on their parenting journeys because the best thing we can give our children are parents that prioritize their well-being. I firmly believe we can all learn skills to reduce the negative impact of separation on our children and ourselves.
Thank you for being part of this journey with me.
