This webinar demystifies the boundaries of what treating therapists can ethically and legally answer, offering practical guidance on how to ask questions that yield useful information without shutting down a therapist. Through real-world examples and courtroom scenarios, attendees will learn how to frame questions that support their client’s case while respecting the therapist’s clinical role. The presentation also explores the therapist’s perspective: why many clinicians feel uneasy in court, how attorneys can reduce that discomfort, and how mutual understanding can lead to more effective testimony and better outcomes.

Cathy Himlin, LMFT, LPCC, has more than thirty years’ experience as a licensed marriage and family therapist and is also a licensed professional clinical counselor.

She serves on the San Diego Family Law Bar Association’s Mental Health Committee and is a member of CAMFT and the AAMFT, and developed child-centered trainings for family law attorneys, therapists, and parents. Her new book, The Rejected Parent: Rebuild Your Relationship with Your Child During a Divorce or Custody Dispute, will be published in the Spring of 2026.
